Art Around Town — The Fall Season at Marietta Square

The DuPre’s artists have been hard at work this fall creating and displaying their wonderful artwork. I pulled out a few of my favorite photos taken around Marietta Square to share with you.

Art Lights Up the Night at Marietta Square’s September Art Walk

It was a lovely night to visit the First Friday Art Walk at Marietta Square. I started my evening outside Marietta Wine Market, playing some fiddle and displaying art along with Robert East and Irene Bernhardt, both with the Art Forum at DuPre’s Antique Market.

As the sun went down, the windows along the Square came alive with color.

The Art Forum at DuPre's Antique Market hosts Artists Alley.

Gene Bradley's Secret Garden at Theatre in the Square looks pretty at night.

Follow the signs -- There's always more to see at the Art Walk.

Paint the Town is a colorful treat.

It's a celebration at 2 Rules Fine Art!

I’m so glad I had a chance to visit 2 Rules Fine Art for their grand opening celebration. I immediately fell in love with Kay Vinson’s mixed media pieces, which included phone book and dictionary pages. Stephanie Rond also had some wonderfully creative work with book pages. The entire gallery is a delight, all the way back to the far wall, where I found the incredible relief prints by Hannah Skoonbers.

Mark your calendars now for the last Art Walk of the year, on October 7th. See you there!

It’s Hip to be Square

The Art Forum’s own Irene Bernhardt and Kee Carlisle got to show off their art recently in a series of clips on Fox 5 News about Marietta Square. Watch to hear more about the Arts Renaissance here in Historic Downtown Marietta.

The artists are in the 3rd segment, so click on the image, go grab a cup of coffee and enjoy.

Fun Night for Art on Marietta Square

The First Friday Art Walks just keep getting better and better. I had fun strolling the Square and meeting new artists.

I love balloons!

Ann Marshall Bailey and her wonderful oil paintings.

Philip Myrick with The Studio over the Australian Bakery, creating movie star portraits using old film, and music stars using old records.

Back at the Art Forum, the art-loving crowd was bustling about in the air conditioning.
