<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We are so excited about having a little taste of Key West in Richmond! The following is from the two curators, Byron and Lawson:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Hi folks....<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Got plans for <b>Tuesday, July 3<sup>rd</sup>, from 5-8 PM</b>....?....(July 4<sup>th</sup> eve)...<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We have been asked by <b>Katie Ukrop</b>, <b>Quirk</b> gallery owner, to curate a show at <b>Quirk</b> of some of our personal favorite artists.<span style="background-color: white;">So we thought long and hard, and decided to bring to Richmond 3 artists that we know and love from Key West. The artists are 3 of the most wonderful and delightful women you will ever meet....and they will be there to talk about their work, their inspiration, or anything else that might come up. They are each extremely talented in their own medium, and we think you will certainly enjoy the variety that the show has to offer.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Of course there will be beverages like beer and wine (it is an opening, remember), but our friend <b>Margaret Doyle</b> will also be there with her coffee cart serving up Cuban coffee’s too...after all, we are bringing folks in from Key West..... <u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Now what else do you have to do on a hot-middle-of-the-week-summer-<wbr></wbr>holiday in Richmond?....come down to <b>Quirk</b>, enjoy the show, and then go back to your humid back yard BBQ....<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Got friends or family in town, bring them with you!....and if you know someone who might be interested in the show, tell them about it....even pass along this email .....<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">A bit about each artist, to peek your interest....<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u></u>1) <u></u><b><u>Helen Harrison</u></b>....her work is as tropical as you get. She uses renewable and organic materials to create sculpture and other 3-dimensional work. Helen has an innate appreciation for wood and its infinite variations. Her sculptural concepts are based on the notion of forms paired with dramatic color. The work reveals and re-shapes the beauty found in nature. Helen is in the collection of quite a few private Richmond collectors, and is also in the corporate collection at Media General.<u></u><u></u></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u></u>2) <u></u> <b><u>Cynthia Wynn</u></b> ....”technically I use very simple fabrication techniques: welding, torch cutting, and grinding.”....and you will see that this is an understatement when you see Cindy’s functional and very beautiful sculptural work made from re-purposed scrap metal and machine parts. Her work is also in several collections around Richmond.<u></u><u></u></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u></u>3) <u></u><b><u>Susan Sugar </u></b>....both oils and watercolors, Susan paints the skies most people never appreciate or see; tumultuous, moody, dawn skies. Working in Key West where she lives about half of the year (the other half here in NYC), Susan captures moments and poetry in place with her paints and brushes. She is also collected and coveted by several Richmond collectors.<u></u><u></u></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Well, that is who we have brought to Richmond......we are very excited....so come see, enjoy, and even purchase!<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We just added some fresh jewelry from Myung Urso on our website! Her work is so beautiful and fun to wear, everyone should own some of her work. To give you a better idea of her methods and reasoning behind them, read her artist statement:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Painterly surfaces and sculptural forms influence my contemporary jewelry aesthetic.</span></span></div>

The shaping of rice cake and arranging vegetables for winter storage enhanced my visual aesthetic. My previous work experience as an editor/reporter and art curator has broadened my knowledge and interpretation of contemporary jewelry.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; display: inline !important; float: none; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 18px; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Calligraphy and sewing serve as my fundamental techniques, which I have practiced throughout my lifetime. Calligraphy has always fascinated me in how the brush stroke touches and enlivens the surface of a paper or fabric. Black ink lines and patterns often reveal meaningful symbols, letters or poetic landscapes. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; display: inline !important; float: none; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 18px; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">The collaboration between metal and various fiber materials enhance my ability to create. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; display: inline !important; float: none; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 18px; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Materials have their own character and offer many unique shapes, colors, patterns and textures. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; display: inline !important; float: none; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 18px; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">I challenge myself to emphasize the special characteristics and beauty of materials while expanding the boundaries in creating an original identity for my jewelry art forms."

<div style="text-align: center;">The story: </div><div style="text-align: center;">It all started when Daphne wanted to make gifts for the grandparents fromher daughter June's drawings... we are so happy to have her drawings made permanent. we will always be able to remember how she saw the world at this point in her life. <br />
You can see Daphne's line of jewelry from June's art in her <a href="http://daphneolive.com/daphneolive_catalog.pdf">2012 catalog </a> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><u>How to order gifts from your children’s art: </u></span></div><br />
1. Call or visit Quirk to order 804.644.5450 / or email: info@quirkgallery.com<br />
Daphne can make your children's drawings into earrings, pendants or key rings.<br />
the price for the first item is $165, the price for each additional item (from the same image) is $55. <br />
<br />
2. Submit the drawing in digital form to info@daphneolive.com <br />
scanned images are best, but you can also send a photo of the drawing.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"> <u><b>All drawings must be ordered and submitted by April 18</b></u> </span>so Daphne has time to make them in time for Mother's Day.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div> * Remember that the drawing will have to be shrunken to jewelry size, so simple line drawings are the best. Too much detail will be hard to translate to that size. <br />
<br />
3. The final piece will be 1.35" at its longest side, not including chain, ear wires or key ring. please specify if you would like for it to be smaller. <br />
The jewelry is stainless steel with sterling silver chains and ear wires.<br />
<br />
4. all sales are final.<br />

<br />
Jane Pope Cooper of Balboa Jewelry has designed jewelry for fashion savvy women with a flair for the bold and unique since 2001. By incorporating vintage elements and newly found materials, Jane brings her vision to fruition with her one-of-a-kind designs. Inspired by her ever-stylish grandmother’s eclectic jewelry, Jane gathered brooches, cuffs and charms, developing her own personal style at a very young age. <br />
<br />
The Marysia line was born out of designer Maria Dobrzanska Reeves desire to fill the void within the swimsuit industry. She wanted to create a boutique brand for today's fashionable women who appreciate high quality and design with a flattering fit. Marysia attended the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM) in Los Angeles and interned with Milly in New York. She later won the 2009 Emerging Designer Competition South East.Shortly after her collection launched Reeves introduced a second collection of swimwear. "Bumby" incorporates the same design aesthetics and attention to detail in swimwear for children.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17910532987693128758noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1437215394924123702.post-23856449410018433762012-02-21T10:13:00.000-08:002012-02-21T10:13:28.812-08:00We love Arthur!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KGqevys3f44/T0PbxFGbuZI/AAAAAAAACHU/x0mr_BP16Cg/s1600/photo+3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KGqevys3f44/T0PbxFGbuZI/AAAAAAAACHU/x0mr_BP16Cg/s320/photo+3.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>We are headed to Baltimore for the ACC show this week, and let me tell you, we are sooooooo excited!
