Summer Dreams is a whimsical approach to the Gallery’s July exhibit. Over a hundred Art League artists will interpret their plans, dreams and ideas for a great summer. The Island Room, usually reserved for one artist’s work will feature a surprise: a selection of artworks especially commissioned for this exhibition, all priced $300 or less.
What is your idea for a great summer? Some quiet time by the water in a comfortable chair as evocatively rendered by Annie Coughlin’s “Solitude.” Or do you love taking your boat out on a sail turn keeping cool in the breeze on the local waters as in Anita Stephen’s painting “Sailing.” Do you fancy lazy days sun bathing on our beautiful beaches right here at home? The summer heat will make you want to stay close to the surf as in Joyce Nagel’s pastel “Red, White and Blue” and “Beach Angel” by Virginia MacKenzie. Are you a beach comber? You might find the beautiful variety of shells shown in “Sea Shells” by Ed Funk. If golf is your game, how about this lush depiction of an “18th Green” by J. Michael Nicastre? Or did the travel bug catch you this year? Maybe you’ll go snorkeling to this idyllic “Belize Hideaway” by Leonard Camarda, or you prefer “Sleeping In” Nancy Mitchell Mitchell’s large oil of an exotic beach lined with boats?
Whatever is your fancy, we have it. Or if you do not see exactly what you like, one of our artists can create it for you! Come and get inspired for this summer by your Art League artists’ original artwork – be it paintings, photographs, artisan works or jewelry.
