Post 256: At the ARTfactory in Manassas, Virginia

At the ARTfactory in Manassas, Virginia

I have four pieces of artwork hanging at the ARTfactory at 9419 Battle Street, Manassas, Virginia 20110 from May 4 until June 4, 2022 with the Prince William Art Society's 50th Anniversary show.

In the center is my "Up in the Trees" Acrylic 11x14 painting

This is my 16x20 acrylic painting called "Belmont Bay Marina" which is in Occoquan, Virginia

This painting on the right is my 18x24 inch painting called "No One Can Teach Riding So Well as a Horse"

The other PWAS artists exhibiting at the ARTfactory are:

Michelle Baker
Maria Briganti
Kelly Haneklau
John Hartt
Sheri Herrick
Sandra McClelland Lewin
Ken Meardon
Pat Palmieri
Bettie Sperty
Brenda Vann 

My artwork "Sailing Away" is a 16x20 acrylic painting that sold yesterday, so I took a new piece to the gallery called "Saltwater Aquarium" to replace it. It is also 16x20 acrylic on stretched canvas.

So take a ride to Manassas to see the artwork!
