Sarah Blank Artshow Opening

This past weekend we had the show opening for Sarah Blank. I love the use of different frames and that the pieces were created by using different techniques, the textures adding a level of interest. My favorite is 'Seafaring Heart'. At first glance it reminded me of my boyfriend's grandma as it looks like her when she was younger. There are cardinals flying away from her and his grandma loves/collects cardinals. On top of that, her brooch is of a ship and there are ships/sea in the background (her husband who passed recently was a navyman). Each piece seems to tell a story. All pieces will be available for purchase in store and select pieces will be available online.

Sarah Blank Artshow at Blackbird Attic

This upcoming Second Saturday in Beacon, I am pleased to announce the show 'Wandering in the Wintertime' by Sarah Blank. The show will be up from December 11 to January 7.

A reception that is free and open to the public will be held on opening night from 6pm to 9pm. Blank's artwork will be available for purchase.

"My inspiration for the show came from daydreams during long winter walks," says Blank. "In my work I am influenced by myth, fairy tales and personal experiences in the natural world. I am constantly on a treasure hunt for subject matter."

Her whimsical paintings are usually created from a combination of oils, watercolor, and mixed media.

After graduating from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, Blank pursued a Master's degree in Art Education from Montclair State University. She is now the proud mother of a beautiful baby boy.
