2nd ANNUAL ART BY THE FALLS


Art By The Falls returned to Gypsy Creek Gallery for it’s second annual show and sale of fine art from 12-5pm on Saturday, August 5 and Sunday, August 6, 2006. The show featured the work of resident artists, Anna Green and Ken Dunn. Anna, who studied at the Ontario College of Art, has been a painter for over twenty years. Her watercolour portraits, landscapes, and still life have garnered both local and international acclaim. Ken, who works in both acrylics and mixed media has focused on the development of an abstract expressionist style which is both evocative and unique.

Both artists have exhibited locally at several shows and galleries, including the Durham Art Gallery and the Left Side Gallery in Flesherton. They are also members of the Markdale Artists Group and resident artists at Riversong Gallery in Neustadt. Gypsy Creek Gallery will also be participating in this year’s Autumn Leaves Studio Tour.

Visitors to Art By The Falls were treated to more than just great art. The show took place in a spectacular natural setting complete with wooded trails winding along an escarpment to rushing waterfalls where two cottage galleries are nestled in the forest. The show attracted visitors from not only Grey-Bruce but across Ontario, California, Germany, and the Netherlands as well.
