Creatively Thinking

"Fish In The Reef" was juried into the "Rockies National Watercolor Exhibition that is being held March 1-April 2, 2016 at the Western Colorado Center for the Arts.  What a wonderful time to be in the Rockies.  But, then being in the Rockies is always a wonderful, anytime.

"Park Bench" She came everyday listening to the sweet song the blue birds sang. She came everyday watched blue birds dance. Tiny sky blue wings waltzing with the wind. The park bench is empty these days. The blue birds still serenade and dance with the wind. She knows it is time to return. To dance with the wind. - Christine Alfery

I'm getting ready for my solo exhibition at Gallery 210 in the Plymouth, Wisconsin at the Center for the Arts.  January 25 - Feb 12. The title of the exhibition is "The Journey"  and it includes works from my Ladders and Fences series.  This piece is called "Pink Diamonds." The exhibition includes both poetry by me and by other Wisconsin Poets. Below is the poem that I wrote that goes with this work. Pink Diamonds the sky the all of every thing silver sun moon stars polished diamonds adrift in the music of silence you going gently moving float float float ing in the last days of moving waters pink diamonds adrift in the music of silence

"Cabin Along The Shores Of Lake Superior" has been accepted into the "Midwest Seasons" exhibition at the CVA in Wausau, Wisconsin. I am honored to be part of this marvelous national exhibition in an outstanding gallery at the Center for the Visual Arts.

My "Pink Diamonds" painting is in the book for my upcoming solo exhibition at Gallery 210 in Plymouth Art Center. The exhibition is a retrospective which will feature some of my "Ladders and Fences: The Journey" paintings and poems by Wisconsin poets. I will send out details on this exhibition soon. Pink Diamonds the sky the all of every thing silver sun moon stars polished diamonds adrift in the music of silence you going gently moving float float float ing in the last days of moving waters pink diamonds adrift in the music of silence
