Artist talks & opening at WaterWorks: Jaime Ellsworth and Robin & John Gumaelius

Dog Walker (oil on canvas), by Jamie Ellsworth

This Saturday is the opening for a month of wonder at WaterWorks Gallery – here’s more from Ruth:

August 4-25

Jaime Ellsworth – Oil Paintings
Robin & John Gumaelius – Ceramic Sculpture

Past The Blue Horse (ceramic & metal), by John & Robin Gumaelius

When looking at the works of Jaime or Robin & John, one is filled with a sense of magic, of delight. How did that dog do that? Why is that bird on the creatures’s head?

This familiar sense of wonder enables us to delight in the paintings of Jaime Ellsworth. Using a modified color palette and design, Jaime imbues her paintings of dogs with memories of our own dogs.

Robin and John create mixed media magic with their creatures arriving in all shapes, sizes and stories. It is always the stories that are painted and fired onto the bodies of their fanciful creatures that evoke the fairy tales from days gone by.

And…on Saturday August 4:

Artist Talk 11am: Robin & John Gumaelius

Reception 2-5pm: Jaime Ellsworth & R & J Gumaelius
