JENNIFER LAWTON Art Opening .. Musical Performance with MARLON GIBBONS .. interactive Artist Demonstration by JENNIFER LAWTON Mar 30-Apr 1, 2012 · Apr 2, 04:46 pm
Yet another great weekend full of events for the Art Exhibition of JENNIFER LAWTON at CLAUSTRO Studios & Gallery last weekend, March 30-April 1, 2012.
The exhibit comprised of 15 mixed media works inspired by Jennifer’s recent travels to our country’s capital city, Ottawa. Thank you to everyone for attending Jennifer’s Art Reception on Friday evening March 30, 6-9pm.
On Saturday March 31, from 2-3pm, CLAUSTRO welcomed the multi-talented Guitarist/Keyboardist/Singer MARLON GIBBONS. Backdropped by Jennifer Lawton’s colourful painted photographs, the event was well attended with over 25 people!
And to close the Art Exhibition, on Sunday April 1, from 2-3pm, JENNIFER LAWTON showed a captive audience how she transforms a photograph into a painting … she asked each of the audience members to give her an idea of what portion of the work they wanted to add colour to at which time she sat down to paint to include their input. What a great idea to create a painting based on audience feedback. Thank you for sharing that with us Jennifer!
Stay tuned to view more of Jennifer’s Work, as we will be booking another Exhibition with her at the end of this summer. More to follow.
