First Art Show-March 25, 2011

Mom and I are excited as our first art show approaches March 25, 2011. The idea for an art show was discussed, hinted at, and speculated upon for many years. Glad we finally made it happen. Art Works Studios and Galleries is a great place for artists who want to get their work in front of the public. There is no jury determining whether you can display in the gallery. You pay a fee to rent the space and your work stays on the wall for a month after the 4th Friday art opening. We'll have about 15-18 pieces of acrylic and watercolor art on display. Our idea was to do some crossover between our work, thus the title "Blends". I used some themes and patterns from my mom's art and created my own pieces. Other than some residual anxieties about the process of hanging the work, we are ready to go. It will be an exciting night. Please join us!

About Us

Artist Jacki Harris

Call me the “Hat Artist” and soon I’ll be known as the “Accessory Artist”, since my current artwork consists of renditions of women who have consistent characteristics and who all wear fantastic hats! Some of the characteristics are only one eye showing, full luscious lips and a very thin neck. The first five have a hat that I chose from the internet, but future HATs! Pictures will feature hats from all over the world and of various eras. Each HATs! Picture will come with an accompanying card that explains what era the hat is from and other historical data, all signed by the artist. . . me! Next, I plan to pursue paintings that emphasize shoes (SHOEs!), purses (PURSEs!) and also umbrellas (UMBRELLAs!). Watch what’s coming!

All work is done with a great deal of pride and personal commitment to excellence because I am spiritually connected to each and every work and take each one very seriously.

Artist Jennifer Harris

My style continues to evolve, but most of my work is acrylic paints on canvas. I start with a seed of an idea - a pattern, a feeling, an experience- grab the brushes and the paint and see what unfolds on the canvas. I have been working with watercolor and acrylic for less than a year and find it to be a great creative release. I can create a piece of art using colors you select to match your taste and style.
