Third Coast Gallery returns to Galveston, Texas. Located at 2413 Mechanic St in the historical district in a beautifully restored building, the gallery re-opened it's doors with a huge splash of color and form last night (June 1st, 2013) for the Galveston Artwalk.

Accomplished oil painter and gallerist Jack Morris makes his return bringing in business partner and son Charlie. The gallery featured many fine artists new to the island representing a broad range of style and mediums. 

When Jack invited me to be a part of the show for it's re-opening debut I jumped at the opportunity. I have 12 pieces in the exhibit comprised of 7 paintings and 5 sculptures. They are expertly displayed and will be on view until the 10th of July along with several other personal artist friends from my area. It it such great fun to do a show with a group of artists that are my buddies, it has been a wonderful experience.

A few shots of my work on opening night.

Besides yours truly Deborah Hill, the other artist in this show are:
Jack Morris
Daniel Elliot
Richard Kelver
MV Poffenberger
Shae Skidmore
Shirley Scarpetta Skidmore

More of their work can be seen at the gallery but here are a few pics I took at the opening last night. What a diverse group!

I hope you can make it out to see the show during its run! Now until July 10th and maybe get some beach time in too!

March 14th and 15th, 2013 is all about sculpture and building armatures to support a figurative piece of artwork using Powertex and epoxy clay as the medium. Discover a great way to express your art in 3D with versatile multimedia art materials.

On March 16th and 17th the focus is on a canvas piece using Powertex as a base and medium, combining dry pigments, paper and other interesting materials to develop a mixed media artwork.

Participants have the choice of registering for one session or both. For more information and to download the brochure for location and pricing just click the button below and download the brochure in the Powertex column. The husband/wife professional artists Jimmy and Sheryl McDonald will be graciously hosting the workshop in their beautiful studio. We will all have the rare treat of seeing their new work before they head out for the art circuit this season.

The Davinci Artists Gallery is an artist owned gallery in the heart of downtown Tomball, TX.  When visiting the gallery you are likely to catch one of the artists at work on a sculpture, painting, pottery or mixed media piece. 

Four new members were recently accepted into the cooperative, Melinda English, Reva Power, Jimmy McDonald and little 'ole me (Deborah Hill). 
I have great admiration for so many of the artists showing at DaVinci's and am delighted to be joining forces with this extremely talented group.

The first Friday of each month is the Gallery's open house in which two or three members are selected to be featured. This months featured artists are Jack Morris and Mary Walters. The event is open to the public and is quite a nice little soiree with local music, wine and nosh. ... psst...it's usually a packed house.

And of course the artwork is amazing, with almost 20 artists represented you know you'll find that special piece that needs to be part of your collection. 

For the month of February I have several pieces of assemblage on display and new paintings too. Don't miss a visit-each month much of the art is rotated out and the group brings in new pieces. Open house is the best time to meet and talk with the artist. See you there!
