Post 356: What I have coming up for Donna Liguria Art

What's on My Radar this Fall?

Let's see what art shows and events are coming up that I have on my radar with the Prince William Art Society (PWAS), like the annual Fall Tall Oaks Art Show on Saturday, Oct 5, with the Crossroads Arts Alliance at the Haymarket Museum Oct 6, and at other area art shows.

Art at the Mill Sept 21 to Oct 6, 2024

I currently have art up at Art at the Mill in Milwood, VA which is ongoing. The Artists Reception was Sunday, Sept 29, 2024 from 2 to 5 and there were plenty of art friends there! Along with some fellow Prince William Art Society members, Sandra McClelland Lewin and Bettie Sperty with their significant others, it was a nice afternoon seeing other area artists like Mike Flynn and Maureen Guillot, and Ann McCarty amongst so many others. Tons of fantastic art to browse! Nothing much better to than to be so inspired by all the great ideas and seeing the A M A Z I N G art up on the walls.

When you get there on the reception day, the artists get their name tags so they are easily recognized. Then the hunt begins. FIND your art!

It is rather overwhelming. Even when they have already sold a LOT of art the last week, that's still a LOT of art on the walls.

Donna is currently showing in the Art at the Mill show at the Burwell Morgan Mill, 15 Tannery Lane, Millwood, VA until October 6. See the web Gallery here (this link becomes active when the show begins and will eventually expire). A great hint is to really have a look at the link while its live to see what is selling, the price points, and the subjects.

Blue Glass Vase on Table was found on the main floor on the back wall.

I found Charcuterie Board next to where the wine was being served....very appropriate.

Sometimes you have to look low, sometimes very high: Spring at Merrimac Farm is high overhead.

Unfortunately the Mill was not actually running today - awwww.

Sandra sold 2 of her 3 paintings entered, congratulations!! And obviously, we had to find her fox painting low on the wall!

PWAS Annual Fall Tall Oaks Art Show Oct 5, 2024

Local PWAC artist Donna Liguria will be at the Prince William Art Society's Fall Tall Oaks show on Saturday, October 5 with her paintings, prints and her very popular Mini and Bookcase Art Paintings. The local art group, the Prince William Art Society (PWAS) sponsors the bi-annual Spring and Fall Tall Oaks Art Show, so this Saturday's art show is on Oct 5 from 11 to 5pm. It is right here in Lake Ridge, on the corner of Cotton Mill and Hedges Run, just off of Old Bridge Road. Rain or shine.

Examples of Donna's Bookcase Art which are 4x4 acrylic small art works with no need to hang them

Examples of Donna's Mini Art which are 3x4 mini paintings with a mini easel. I'll have lots of my Bookcase Art and Mini Paintings at the Tall Oaks Show.

The Tall Oaks Community Center at 12298 Cotton Mill Drive, Woodbridge, VA where PWAS holds the Spring and Fall Art Shows, as well as our monthly meetings on the fourth Monday of the month at 7:30pm

Come by and see the show!

Crossroads Art Alliance in Haymarket, VA Oct 6-Nov 15, 2024

My painting of "Gunston Hall" which is part of my Virginia Historic Home Series will be in the Crossroads Art Alliance "Hometown" show at the historic Haymarket Museum at 15025 Washington St, Haymarket, VA 20169 from Oct 5- Nov 15.

I've lived all over Virginia so my 'hometowns' have varied over the years, hence one of my nearby historic Virginia homes was entered. Have you been to it yet?

Artist Inventory Sale at the ARTFactory on Dec 7, 2024

ARTFactory on Dec 7 will be the home of this year's fall Artist Inventory Sale and I plan on attending this show as well. Mike Flynn is working with Jordan Exum at the ARTFactory to have this show -indoors!!!- which will be a very WELCOME change. The weather has not been cooperative for several of the last spring and fall shows at the Harris Pavilion in Manassas.

In the meantime, Etsy is another spot for my art and painting something new is always on my mind! Stop in at any of ALL of these art shows and say HI!!
