Don Brewer on Tamsen Wojtanowski : Shelter at 110 CHURCH

Don Brewer says, Shelter has stuck in my mind, I went back twice to see the cyanotypes and experience the deep blue. The color stirs thoughts of science, spirituality, and inspiration. The compositions add layers of memes and memories to the blissful peace of cyan blue. 

This is a fabulous show. Don't miss walking into Tamsen Wojtanowski's cyanotype world. You can still see it. Closes November 22.

Jim Stewart at Artist House
exhibition
November 1 – November 30, 2014

The White Mountains of New Hampshire have been eroding to their present appearance for something like 300 million years. Their immense beauty is bound up in their ages-long face off with the forces of ice and gravity. A number of the paintings on this site are attempts to explore my response to that place and its temporal resonance.

Artist Tip : Underconstruction is a no-no.
Don't post that your website is under construction. This is a concept from the early days on the web that died a long time ago. Post what you can and make it public. Building a website is iterative.
