Implications

Get to Edgewood Gallery ASAP and witness these colorful, infused-with-energy-and-love paintings by Penny Santy and the late Barbara Vural. Many have been sold but a few are still available for sale. You must hurry because the exhibition is coming down this Friday (April 12, 2024.)

Penny’s newly created abstracted figures are enjoying time on a beach – windsurfing, playing tug-of-war, waterskiing and boating, while Barbara’s abstracted shapes are purely non-representational – and among the last she’d created. She was working in her studio two days before her recent passing.

In addition to these beautiful images, Esperanza Tielbaard is selling “natural elements” jewelry. And there’s glass-works (marbles as sculpture and pendants) by Doug Williams, as well as ceramic items by David McDonald.

Edgewood Gallery is located at 216 Tecumseh Road, Syracuse, NY 13224. They are a frame shop too – proprietor Cheryl Chappell is the best in the biz. Call (315) 445-8111 for further information.

Syracuse artists Jacqueline Adamo, Lauren Bristol, Dana Stenson and Tom Huff have joined forces to produce a contemporary spin on texture for the new art exhibit at Edgewood Art Gallery and Custom Frame Shop (216 Tecumseh Road, Syracuse, New York 13224).

These four talented people – I am always running into them in town – I saw Jackie at the Yoko Ono exhibit at the Everson Museum of Art; I see Lauren every now and then while hiking at Green Lakes; ran into Dana last week at Target and Tom at the Regional Flea Market.  But, weirdly enough, I missed the opportunity to see them all in one place at the same time at the art reception for their show, which was Friday night.

The exhibit is called Creative Thread.  I popped in on Saturday to check it out.  Edgewood is a small gallery, about the size of my living room, but owner Cheryl Chappell has a great eye and a way with space.  Each show brings a fresh perspective and Cheryl does a magnificent job curating – pairing larger pieces with smaller ones and allowing all to shine.  She is also a preeminent framer.

Jackie Adamo has created all new pieces incorporating fabric and sewing techniques into her oil paintings.  Lauren designs her own patterns in these wonderful crochet wall hangings in addition to displaying several diminutive fiber art narratives.  Dana is a metalsmith and has produced some mixed-media art pieces, as well as jewelry for this show.  And Tom has chipped in with his reductive soapstone sculptures.
