Carroll County artist Melinda Byrd updates us on her latest work
Greetings, Friends, Family, Fans, and Fun Folk,
Jan 25, 2009
Melinda Byrd (from Byrdcall Studio) here with an update of good things happening that you might like to know about. I have two big exciting ventures to tell you about:
I have joined with 19 other area artists to form an Artist Co-operative with a gallery-storefront off Main Street in Westminster, MD. We are calling our space “Off Track Art.” We are located just off the railroad tracks (by a few feet) at 11 Liberty St. accessible from the parking lot across the street from both O’Lordans and Johansson’s, next to the library.
Image me and 19 other artists showing some of our best works in a small gallery. We will take turns staffing the shop and share rent to make it all affordable. I’m very excited. We will be opening on Friday, Feb. 13th--yes, Friday the 13th in the afternoon (not sure yet of exact time—ask me later). Off Track Art will be open everyday except Sunday from noon to 6 or 7:00 PM. You probably know my work…just imagine 19 other exciting and stimulating artists all in one gallery!
The other big hoot for me is the fact that I am having my very first SOLO EXHIBITION of my multifaceted arts at the Scott Gallery at Carroll Community College (1601 Washington Rd., Westminster, MD). The opening reception will be Sunday, Feb. 15th from 2-4:00 PM. You are invited, of course! See the attached post card document which also has the image of one of my newest linocuts, “Three Fireflies” and all the details of the exhibit which runs through March 27th. There will be many never-seen-before pieces of my work. Please stop by at some point between Feb 15 and March 27. Please forward this info to anyone you know who might be interested.
Thirdly, I can foresee a very busy spring 2009, so I have decided (sadly) not to teach classes in my studio for teens and pre-teens this year. Fortunately, my friend and fellow artist, Sarah Abel Deluca is working on her spring schedule which may include classes for this age group. I have to say, Sarah is an exceptional artist and teacher. I am currently taking a class from her at the Carroll Arts Center. Her work is currently being featured at the Arts Center (in the gallery to the right). She is very experienced teaching high school students, and welcomes the pre-teens too. Perhaps at her studio, or perhaps at your child’s school. Feel free to give her a call or email if you have teens or pre-teens interested in developing their artistic abilities: 410.751.9259 or info@abelartist.com. Check out her work at : Click here: SARAH ABEL DELUCA, artist
And finally, remember I am here for you. My favorite thing is to create art that you will cherish for you. Whether it is a hand-printed shirt or a painting of your beloved pet or landscape…just call or email me!
I am looking forward to seeing you soon.
Peace and love,
Melinda
