Gallery photos taken after the opening

Photos taken about 9pm after a very sucessful night! There was barely move to breath at one point with atleast 60 people in the Gallery. A photographer came from the 'Southern view' and took smiling faces in front of gorgeous art photos. There were two sales of artworks to
Linelle Stacey & Tania Verrent and a commission for Andy Elliot-congratulations to you three!.
Shelly sold 3 vintage button necklaces :) The painting above the door is Tania's that sold.
Update-sunday: I just had a follow up phone sale- a buyer for Amanda Cass-congratulations!

Everyone commented on the very high standard of the art, and were most impressed by the variety of different styles and subject matter. We hung the artworks next to those that would compliment each other, this worked really well and every piece looked like it was ment to be there. The walls flowed beautifully and all the artworks were stunning-something for everyone.


Art raffle painting by Linelle Stacey $2 per ticket




The top left painting in this image is Linelle's that sold
Thank you very much to all the Artists and friends that helped. Without all of you this could never have happened.......love to you all :)
