Thanks to all who came to the second Saturday artist reception last night. It was a lovely evening. My photographs seemed to glow a bit more after hearing the wonderful Gallery Songs recital! The arts in communication - one with another - offer a wonderful experience.

There is still time to see the show in the Mirella Cimato Gallery at the St Petersburg Opera through October 27. It comes down on Thursday, October 28.

Have you wondered how an artist comes to have her first solo exhibition when she’s 75?  I will try to answer that question of me and my choices as I journey into the simplicity of old age in an artist talk on October 14 from 1:30 to 3 pm in the Mirella Cimato Gallery. I will converse about how I learned my art, my photography work process, the concept behind Breath Taking: Sheltering In Our Garden and forces that influence me. The discussion will take place in the Mirella Cimato Gallery from 1:30 - 3pm. I’d love to have you join me. 

The Mirella Cimato Gallery is now open Monday thru Friday from 1 until 5 pm to visit my show Breath Taking: Sheltering In Our Garden. The next opportunity to see it during the evening will be on Saturday, October 9, 2021 from 5 until 9 pm.  For the first time, the St. Petersburg Opera Company will offer songs to piano accompaniment during the artist reception. Their recital will be from 6 until 6:30 pm.
