Marin Open Studios 2022

Hope to see you!

Garden blooms ahead of Marin Open Studios.

Kathleen & Steve will be participating both weekends of this year’s Marin Open Studios, April 30 & May 1 and May 7 & 8. There will be additional information on this event soon, but the garden is beautiful now, if anyone would like to see art &/or the garden before then. Please call, (415) 453-3648.

Steve has three paintings in the Bolinas Museum’s “Hardly Strictly Mini” exhibit.

“These pieces began as variations on the graphs new to our daily lives. I stuck to the format, but not the science in these. I invented curves, without a thought to flattening them. I used bright colors without regard to whether they might represent good, or bad, just as long as they worked with each other. The last one above, I tilted 90 degrees, and liked it even better.”

The exhibit at the Bolinas Museum lasts through the month of December.

Annual Open Studio-November 26, 27 & 28

Kathleen & Steve are holding an Open Studio the Friday, Saturday & Sunday after Thanksgiving, from 11 am to 4 pm, at their home & studio, 38 San Francisco Blvd. in San Anselmo.

A few months have passed in our studios.

This view from Mt. Burdell is a 36 x 66″ oil on canvas. Kathleen has finished many painting the last several months, sheltering in her studio.We’ve begun to show work in our home gallery by appointment. Please don’t hesitate to call for an appointment or questions. (415) 453-3648. The last few months have been a challenge, and we’ve gotten to know well, all the local trails from our home. All exhibitions, open studios & the final Marinscapes are over, or were canceled, but we’ve both been quite productive all the while.

A Creative Spring

The oil painting above, “Mt. Tamalpais from Richardson Bay”, 30 x 25″, was created with the Mill Valley Fall Arts Festival poster in mind. Stay tuned for details.                                                                                                               We’ve been busy painting & gardening and usually look forward to sharing our art & garden during May Open Studios, now canceled. We’d still love to see you, one or two at a time, if you’re interested in seeing what’s new in the garden or on our walls. Please email or call, (415) 453-3648, for an appointment. We’ll respect all social distancing rules. Wishing you a safe and healthy spring as we care for one another.

 

Kathleen & Steve continue to show their artwork by appointment through December.

Those who missed our recent open studio, have out-of-town family or friends, shopping for yourself or others, all are welcome to call for an appointment to see all our artwork in our home gallery & studio. Please don’t hesitate to call! There’s no obligation and we love showing our work. (415) 453-3648. Evenings and weekends are fine, too!

Catamaran literary magazine publishes 3 of Steve’s paintings in their fall issue.

Steve is thrilled to be included in this magazine, published out of Santa Cruz. The art is always featured with equal importance, and in this issue Steve is in good company. For more about this magazine: https://catamaranliteraryreader.com/

Three small paintings: “Mt. Tamalpais from Bon Tempe Lake”

These three 7″ x 12.5″ oil paintings on canvas are done from Kathleen’s love of this place. Both Steve & Kathleen spend a few hours a week along the shores, often running around the perimeter. Currently, the lupine is blooming in large carpets of purple. These paintings will be on display at our May Open Studio, as part of Marin Open Studios. May 4 & 5 and May 11 & 12, from 11 am to 6 pm.

“Storm Clouds on the Bay”, Kathleen’s new 24″ x 24″ oil.

This view of San Francisco Bay from Larkspur is part of our 40th annual Open Studio exhibit & sale.
