Gail Elwell opens art display at Birdies and Peter Plant opens art display at Off Track Art Westminster MD Friday Nov. 4, 2011

Friday, November 4th in the evening, enjoy two art receptions open to the public:
5:30 to 7:30 pm, Off Track Art welcomes PETER PLANT as guest artist.  


7:00 to 10:00 pm, Birdie’s Cafe features GAIL ELWELL's collage work.

Peter Plant is the gallery guest at Off Track Art for November and December.  Peter is a studio and plein air artist who has worked in a traditional style of painting in acrylics.  Over the past two years however, he has branched out and experimented with a variety of mixed media techniques which have broadened his experience in both studio and plein air work.  His studio work has included wet-in-wet acrylics on watercolor paper, images drawn with markers, as well as poured and splattered paint backgrounds.  Plant’s goal is to explore media and techniques that enhance the creative experience while presenting realistic images to the viewer.  Pearlescent inks, Sharpie markers, watercolor pencils, and colored pencils have all found their way into his art.

Gail Elwell, a partner of Off Track Art, shows her collage series, “52 Weeks.”  This exhibit at Birdie’s Cafe on Main Street in Westminster, runs November through December.  Gail worked steadily for an entire year creating a collage every week, hence the exhibit’s title.

Kevin Dayhoff - The Tentacle: Work Cut Out For Municipal League

November 2, 2011

Work Cut Out For Municipal League
Kevin E. Dayhoff
This week officials from Maryland cities and towns throughout the state converged on the Cambridge Hyatt Chesapeake Bay conference facilities for the three-day Maryland Municipal League’s fall legislative conference.

The Maryland Municipal League, (MML) was founded in 1936 by Annapolis Mayor Louis N. Phelps in an effort for Maryland municipalities to obtain funds available to local governments from the Work Progress Administration (WPA) under President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal.

The organization is run by local officials from the 157 cities and towns from across the state. It works as an advocate for those municipalities.

In recent years, much of the advocacy of the MML has centered on maintaining, and indeed, restoring municipal state-shared revenues that have been taken away by the Maryland General Assembly in order to balance the beleaguered state budget.

Last weekend’s rare October winter weather may not be the only “deep freeze” that descended on the state as national, state and local elected officials attempt to fathom the political consequences of the prolonged economic downtown, increased rules, regulations and unfunded federal and state mandates being placed on local governments...
