Thank you all for such a wonderful 2014 and for all of the support and good will I have received. I am very happy and grateful to have made it thus far and to actually have my dream of opening my own Gallery/studio.
2015 is gearing up to be another great year. I will be working hard in the studio for the winter and will see you in the Spring. Happy New year and Let the Magic of 2015 Begin... :-) Thanksgiving is over and now on to the holidays. Our last exhibition for 2014 will be "Pint Size Holiday" a collection of small original paintings and collages perfect gift ideas for the holidays or a welcomed addition to your art collection.
Show runs from December 1-11 with a reception on Aha Night on December 11 5pm - 9pm. Hope to see you there :-) With the addition of lights and snow flakes and fun artsy ornaments, i'm very proud of our Gallery window - our first ever street level store front. Loving it <3
Last week began the preparation of Deck the Windows for our gallery space at 106 William St. New Bedford. I personally love decorating for the holidays but I didn't realize how much I would have enjoyed this project of decorating the gallery's store-front. We decided not to go with painting the windows but instead install an installation of a painted tree branch with artsy and creative ornaments to give that art studio flair.
The New Bedford Cultural Council is sponsoring DECK THE WINDOWS. A Call for artists and all creative people to decorate, paint or install something festive in a business windows all through downtown New Bedford and win some fun prizes. Alison Wells Fine Art Studio & Gallery will be taking part in the Deck the Windows event-with our Gallery Tree installation.
Small Business Saturday encourages people to shop at small businesses on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. The single day has grown into a powerful movement and more people are taking part than ever before. This year, it is on Saturday November 29, 2014 Alison Wells Fine Art Studio & Gallery will be taking part in Small Business Saturday this year at our new location: 106 William St. New Bedford MA 02740 10:00am - 5:00pm - 10% off all large scale original artwork - 20% off framed original artwork - Plus 1 Free Greeting Card with every purchase of an original artwork "WHEN YOU SHOP SMALL IT CAN LEAD TO BIG THINGS -THE SHOP SMALL MOVEMENT MAKES AN IMPACT ON NEIGHBORHOODS ACROSS THE COUNTRY."
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone. Thanks to faithful customers like yourself, this past year has been remarkable and as the year draws to a close, I want to let you know how much I appreciate your continued patronage.
So pleased everything went well with the transformation of my new studio and Gallery space. It was not an easy trip but with hard work dedication and a love for what I do I have arrived at this stage. Blessed that I can be living my artists dream.
Two wonderful pics from Thursday night's Opening Reception by Steven Froias from New Bedford Now https://www.facebook.com/NewBedfordNow?ref=br_tf The Paintings were up and the track lighting was angled perfectly on them. So it was now time for the finishing touches.
My husband the farmer brought pumpkins, gourds and flowers to decorate the space and boy did they give the space a beautiful touch of autumn in the air. |
