Coastal Arts League Gallery

300 Main St Half Moon Bay, CA

Thursday - Monday 12 - 5pm

NEW art WORK is a significant part of an artist’s growth. Artists are continually transforming, finding new inspiration and experimenting with a variety of techniques, forms, mediums and palettes; whether it is testing their own abilities, challenging the conventions of art, or just having fun with experimentation. Producing NEW WORK is a manifestation of the artist’s current perspective and self.  Peninsula Women’s Caucus artists Lorraine Capparell, Cosette Dudley, Lisa Evens, Carol Golemme, Kris Idarius, Pat Keefe, Rebecca Lambing, Tanya Lin, Yvonne Newhouse, Irene Schlesinger, Francine Survillo, Deanna Taubman, Rachel Tirosh, Leigh Toldi, Ruth Waters and Marian Yap will debut their NEW art WORK in this exhibit.

MENLO PARK, Calif. -- The Portola Art Gallery presents “Along the Nakasendo” — an exhibition of watercolor paintings by Yvonne Newhouse of San Mateo. The exhibit highlights scenes from her hiking and sketching trip to Japan last October. Although the paintings were completed in the studio, the essence of the trip was retained — moving slowly on foot, observing daily life and small gardens.

The Nakasendo is an ancient route the samurai and other people used to travel between Tokyo and Kyoto. While much of the original 300+-mile trail no longer exists in its historic form, some of the 69 “post towns” and sections of road have been beautifully preserved or restored for travelers on foot.

Peninsula Women’s Caucus for Art Exhibit – Visions

June 2, 2017 - July 31, 2017

Milton Marks Conference Center Galleries

The Hiram W. Johnson State Office Building 

455 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94102. 

Gallery hours are during business hours.

Art is not always about representing the world as it exists. In this exhibition we explore unseen forces of the unconscious mind for inspiration. “Visions” allows us to record inner visions, ephemeral feelings and fantasies toward creating art works guided by these dreams and visions. It is an opportunity for our group to try experimental art or record these visions hidden in representational work. Peninsula Women’s Caucus artists Lorraine Capparell, Cosette Dudley, Kris Idarius, Pat E. Keefe, Rebecca Lambing, Tanya Lin, Yvonne Newhouse, Deanna Taubman, Rachel Tirosh, Leigh Toldi, and Marian Yap have shared their visions to create art for this exhibit.
