2014 started with a weather pattern that is more or
less erratic. But I don’t think I am telling you something you aren’t
aware of. With an ice storm that left us without power…or heat... in
below freezing temperatures , our
farm is covered with a coating of ice which is making it hard to walk
...but oh so easy to slide…often unintentionally. So I walk carefully
into the New Year with cleats on my winter boots and trying to grab time
in the studio. The cold weather means more work on the farm and less
artistic time for me.
The good news is that I have been invited into a
new art gallery in Red Hook, NY. So this week I packaged up 7 paintings
to go to Equis Art Gallery, in Red Hook…..and I look forward to a great
working relationship with them. This gallery that is representing some
of the best international equine artists, and it is the dream incarnate
of equine photographer Juliet Harrison. How appropriate that her "stable
of artists" includes some amazing equine artists! I am so flattered to
be part of that dream.
"Four In Hand From Above" casein on paper 12 x 9" ©2012 www.kathipeters.com
One of my
works that will be exhibited in Equis Art Gallery is my casein painting
“Four In Hand From Above”, a painting that was inspired from a loft view
of a coaching turnout that was up at Acadia’s Wildwood Stables years
ago. I am always inspired to paint carriage driving scenes and the lofty
view of any subject is also a view I have painted throughout the years.
Equis Art Gallery is interested in my carriage driving art work. I will
strive to create some more works with just that subject.
BACK TO THE STUDIO I GO…….There are paintings that need doing!
