GEORGE  MATTINGLY  ART

 

 

Almost Summer

​

The days are warmer, the nights are light longer and there's more time to get things done during the day, and I've been busy!  One very enjoyable event was a demonstration/class at the Thames River Gallery in New London with well known CT artist Shauna Shane as my teacher. The gallery promotes new and upcoming artists, and I was able to have four paintings on display for a month. It was a great experience, and I am very grateful to Shauna for her advice, expertise and  continued support of my art. Additionally, I had paintings on display this month at the winery in New Hartford, and received very positive feedback from there as well.

​

There are exhibits and shows coming up this month and next, including the Annual Wistariahurst Exhibition in Holyoke, MA, when during the month of June, the museum hosts an exhibition of artwork by the members of the Holyoke Art League. The opening reception, free , and open to the public

will feature works by artists who will be in attendance that evening. The date of the reception is Monday June 2, from 5-7p.m, and the exhibition also can be viewed free of charge during the museum's open hours Mondays from 10a.m. until 2p.m. and Tuesdays from 4:30-6:30p.m.  I will have three painting included in the exhibit, and hope to see some familiar faces at the reception or able to enjoy all the art during the open exhibit in June. 

​

Another "big" event which I enjoy being part of is the "Windjammer Days" that really kicks off the summer in the Boothbay, Maine region. The annual event begins Sunday, June 22, and goes through Saturday June 28, 2025.

I will have a booth in an area of the festival known as "Artist's Alley," and look forward to being part of this great week in Boothbay Harbor.

​

There are some new paintings and portraits on the site, and as always, I can be contacted if you are interested in any of the paintings, to have a commissioned piece done, or if you would like a personal portrait.​​

 

Thanks for browsing and the continued support. 

 

Enjoy the art!

George
