Art Display in December






Here is the PR I prepared for a show coming up in December if anyone is interested in seeing some of my work up close and personal.

Who:
Akron Area Artist, Barbara Krans Jenkins

What:
Art Show featuring a retrospective of Wildlife, and Botanical Art.

When:
December 6th through December 27th, 2008
Opening Reception: Saturday. December 6th, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Where:
The North Water Street Gallery 257 N. Water StreetKent, OH 44240
Contact information:
Gallery Hours: Thursday-Saturday, 1-5 pm.
Or by appointment
Jeff Ingram/Executive Director 330-673-4970 http://www.standingrock.net/

Why:
You will feel her passion for the woodlands we all live in here next to our wonderful Cuyahoga Valley National Park. In addition to viewing Barbara's Wildlife paintings, this show will also feature her newest direction into the realm of 3-D art ... Gourds. These gourds continue with the same subjects she loves doing in her 2-D paintings. However, they contain line drawing done with a Wood Burning tool, and sculpting done with Dremel Tools. Finally, she finishes them off with colored pencil and coats of UV protecting clear acrylic spray to seal her art permanently on the surface of these gourds.
