Shrouded forms by Margaret Sharrow | BOOK INFO

I like this photo so much that I'm posting it again. It feels very calm and composed. Though I have always liked Vermeer. 

------------------

I'm already planning other projects and exhibitions.

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to visit my exhibition, look at the work, and talk to me about it. It's still on for another two weeks. Plus I have plans to take the 'Shrouded car (bird)' on tour - at selected locations around Wales, I will be setting up shop, so to speak, most likely on Saturday and/or Sunday afternoons, if the weather's fine. 

'Shrouded forms' until April 30 in Lampeter's Town Hall Cafe

Many thanks to everyone who called by during my gala event last weekend. I had a great time standing by my piece 'Shrouded car (bird)', sharing delicious deli canapes and talking with everyone. I had my photo taken, an offer to buy me sunscreen (fellow North Americans can't help worrying about potential health risks, and it was The Most Beautiful Day In Wales, Ever), loads of good wishes, cake and a drink bought for me at the end of the day by one of my top patrons, and even an invitation to a Buddhist wedding! A small boy squinted quizzically at the piece, and when I explained it to him ('Imagine the car is asleep, or dreaming, or dead, under its blanket. What would it want to wake up as? A bird!') he was slightly convinced. He was even more convinced by a spicy red pepper stuffed with cream cheese (face lit up, strolled away happy). 

I remain in residence, as it were, frequently lurking in the cafe with my work, until 30 April. But do let me know if you are coming especially to see me, as I'm not there all the time...

'Shrouded Forms', a photographic/mixed media exhibition of current work by artist Margaret Sharrow, will open Thursday 1 April at the Town Hall Café Deli, Lampeter, Wales and runs throughout the month of April. 

The exhibition will be celebrate by a gala event on Saturday 10 April, 11 am - 3 pm, when there will be a special showing of 'Shrouded car (bird)' in the archway between the cafe and Jen Jones Welsh Quilt Centre, in addition to the exhibition inside the café.

Margaret Sharrow is a graduate of Aberystwyth University's School of Art and has exhibited at St Dogmaels Gallery, @ the Gallery in Rhayader, Erwood Station Craft Centre and Gallery and other venues in Wales.
