The Great Ponds Gallery is pleased to announce Book, Art, and Blooms VI, a unique art exhibit sponsored by the Lakeville Garden Club.
Several local artists will exhibit art works in various media that have been inspired by their choice of book, Members of the Garden Club will then design a flower arrangement to complement the art work.
This colorful, creative, and free exhibit is open to the public August 1 through 29.
The Great Ponds Gallery welcomes local scratchboard artist Bob Weikel for two months this summer.
A member of the International Society of Scratchboard Artists, Oak Point Art Association, and the Taunton Art Association, Weikel's scratchboard artwork is a form of direct engraving on a board coated with India Ink wherein the artist uses sharp knives and tools to scratch off dark ink to reveal a white layer beneath. Scratchboard can be used to yield highly detailed, precise, and even textured artwork. These works can be left black and white or color added.
Along with a gallery reception on the evening of June 6th, the artist will be available to meet on Saturday, June 8th.
