An exhibit of my art work has been installed at Connecticut Muffin. The show, entitled "The Moroccan Way" consists of work inspired by my travels through Morocco. The colors and designs of this rich and ancient culture provided stimulus for the imagery.
Several of the pieces depict the Jardin Majorelle, a lush garden environment built by designer, Yves St. Laurant, in Marrakesh. Other imagery includes a tannery where hides were "processed", a rug shop and a water seller, whose colorful attire and brass cups might entice you, but with dire consequences if you drank. Paintings are rendered in pastel and mixed media and two transfer prints.
There will be a "Meet The Artist" reception this Friday, October 10th, 2008 from 7 to 9PM. The show will run through October 27th. Connecticut Muffin is located on Cortelyou Road, by Stratford Road.

Hope to see you there on Friday. What do you think of this theme?
