A reminder to STOP, turn off that which is angst producing, and LOOK AWAY, to see what BEAUTY you can easily find...music, art, the great outdoors, food and drink, and your dog....

Frank is finishing a new body of work, "Studio Still Lives" for a vast exhibit at the Kehler Liddell Gallery in Westville, New Haven, CT from February 16-March 19th, 2017.
The Opening Reception is scheduled for March 11, 2017, 3-6pm. You must join us to celebrate beauty and Frank's paintings, and to clink your "glass" with neighbors and fellow collectors.
"Studio Still Lives" shows the extreme beauty of the most common of artists' painting supplies... luscious tubes of oil paint, palettes with multiple layers of crusted over paint, chock full tabourets, well-worn paint splotched brushes, canvas pliers, myriad solvents in finger smudged glass bottles. Always incorporated in these studio studies is some sublime addition from nature, a jar filled with apples and pears, an orchid stolen from our living room, a vase of forced bulbs, tulips and...poker chips? Yes, some friends set up still lifes with objects meaningful to them. What objects are important to you? Come and see how the everyday stuff of our lives become exalted when painted on the canvas...Bruckmann style. Or at least to find out what the heck is a tabouret!
