Georgetown Gallery Gaze
Georgetown's monthly gallery openings is slated for the third friday of the month, so we finally made the rounds this past friday. We started at the north end of Wisconsin and made our way down. Highlights for me were some photos of Roman landscapes and tuscan fruits and veggies that had what looked to be an acetate like wash at Susan Calloway Fine Art; mexican painted wood animal figurines at Phoenix; hand made jewelry at Poppy; some city scapes of NYC and Paris with a playful take on perspective at Thomas Moser, and I loved a sculpture of several little men climbing over each other at Parish Gallery. Only the last found me tempted to purchase - the gallery owner suggested I keep coming to his openings and his price may come down (he thinks my price will come up and who knows). I am pretty sure he just wants to offload it as it is sitting in his back office. Only problem with it is it is sitting on a block of wood that I think somewhat takes away from the actual surface. Not sure if it can be remounted but the artists signature is on the wood.
