Gallery Walk


Highly Recommended: Emerging Artist Invitational, exhibiting until February 24, at the Florida Craftsmen Gallery. The exhibit includes Florida artists with no prior solo exhibitions.
At right, incense sticks and paper make up Burn Book (Gabriel) Volume 3, by Martin Casuso of Miami...











...Liliana Crespi's ethereal Sanctuary...
















...down the street at the Arts Center, Robert Stackhouse & Carol Mickett exhibit with Waves of Meaning until February 23...












The exhibit includes large sculpture, an example of which is perfectly captured by my shitty camera phone. In the Blue is created from painted cypress. Walking through is wonder, and disconcertion all at the same time, as the wood out of the periphery reminds one of storm debris.
