Road Trip...

Mr. O and I took a short road trip on a chilly Easter Sunday to Wesleyan University's art galleries...It was the first time I have been to that campus and it is very beautiful...spring is trying to show itself here too...




...At the Davison Art Center we saw a small but evocative photography show of Judith Joy Ross photographs...click on her name for a link to the show's description...this was one of my many favorites at the show...

Her most recent photographs included are part of a series of portraits taken of protesters against the Iraq war...

...We then went to the Zilkha Galleries where some Senior Thesis Exhibitions were taking place and were very impressive...I wish I wrote down the names of the student artists of my favorite pieces shown here...but they were included within this group..

Jason Bailey, Travis Fitzgerald, Omar Hunter Craighill, Claire Staples and
Joshua Koenig.

...this wonderful, flowing wooden sculpture...

...and a fun, light-hearted series of very large paintings of chairs of all types...

...all of these paintings were too large to fit in my house but I would have been happy to hang any one of them if I could...
