It is hard to believe that 8 weeks have passed since we opened our doors for the 2009 Celebration of Fine Art. Time has flown by. We’ve welcomed many first time visitors as well as long-time familiar faces. The common thread is we all love art! Every day we hear people saying “best show ever”!
The artists creative energy has been incredible. Every day new works emerge. I’ve included some photos of pieces that artists have been working on.
The first one is an amazing piece by Scott Rogers called “The Last Supper”. The piece is filled with detail on every face. It truly is something to behold. Stop by and see it before the show closes.

This is a recent creation by Joseph Woodford. It truly pushes the limits of creativity in contemporary ceramics. It’s over 6 feet tall. You really need to see it in person!

I always like to catch artists at work. That is really what this show is all about. It is the place where art lovers and artists connect. Visitors can watch the artists in action every single day. Here are a few images to give you the feeling of being there with us.

Martha Pettigrew, well known for her sculpting talents, has added painting to her list of talents. Here you see her working on a clay piece with a partially completed painting in the background!

Aaron Harker has gained a huge following for his creative works of realism. Here he is working on a commission piece for some clients of the Celebration.

Well, I could go on and on, but you really need to experience it for yourself! There is so much talent at the Celebration of Fine Art. If you haven’t visited yet this year, you have got to try to find a way to get here before closing day on March 29, 2009. The artists will be creating new works of art right up until the end of the show. There is still time to fall in love with something and take it home with you.
We hope to see you soon!
Susan and Jake
