Art Exhibition by LISA and music performance by CAREY WORROD · May 13, 04:17 pm

Lisa’s smooth and powerful sculptures, backdropped by her intuitive waterscape paintings, changed the mood of Claustro Gallery in an instant.

On Saturday afternoon, backdropped by Lisa’s sculptures and paintings, we held a music performance with a powerful singer, Carey Worrod. Carey shared with the audience how he loops his music to create layers in his performance. He played some very familiar tunes from Pink Floyd to the blues, with a ‘Worrod twist’. An amazing guitar player and powerhouse singer, we have invited Carey back to perform an evening concert Saturday September 30th.

Sunday afternoon, Lisa provided a hands-on demonstration. Inspired by Lisa’s life as an artist, I decided to join the other 10 participants in creating my own art card, using fluid acrylics and no brushes. We were invited to use knives, cardboard, popsicle sticks or fingers to create colour. I chose to use my fingers, and it was so exhilerating! Everyone really enjoyed the process. Once we were completed our cards, Lisa demonstrated how to sand and carve a small stone to create a pendant. Again, it was very inspiring and a day to remember. Thank you Lisa!
