"Find your inspiration! These miniature paintings on canvas mounted to board are quotes by people who have inspired me over the years to continue on being creative. I didn't say them first, but I am repeating the sayings. When I look at the quotes, I muster the spirit of creativity and keep on filling up blank little canvas. I call them Lentz ARTcards and sell them at the Greater Good Gallery." - Lisa Bisbee Lentz

Lisa Bisbee is Hanging it Up - Art Around New Bern

7/2/2012

Lisa Bisbee wraps the walls with artwork

 It's the end of the month, which means that rotating exhibits around town will shift into new imagery to get ready for the upcoming ARTWALK from 5pm to 8pm on Friday, July 13, 2012.

Along with a group of artists, Lisa Bisbee enhances the walls of New Bern establishments, MJ's Raw Bar and The Next Chapter Bookstore. 

On Saturday, Michaelé Rose Watson and Blaine Kruger embellished the walls at MJs with brightly vivid colored canvases painted by Blaine Kruger. Lisa says,"With all the different sizes and colors, we could build consistency by aligning the top edge  of the artworks and space each out evenly."

Hanging a show is harder than it looks. Moving the pieces little to the left and then a little to the right, Lisa is grateful that Mike Lentz, owner of MJs Raw Bar, invested into a professional hanging system. The system is wired along the ceiling and dangles a hanging clip which slides as the composition of the wall unfolds.

Later Saturday afternoon, Lisa Bisbee meets up with a group of artists at The Next Chapter Bookstore to hang a group show for summertime 2012. Big thanks to Patti & Tom Reeves for providing local artists the opportunity to showcase their talents. More about this group exhibit to come in the next blog post.

A Scrumptious Exhibit
by Michaelé Rose Watson. 

As a scrumptious visual treat, visit downtown 216 Middle Street at MJ's Raw Bar & Grill to view amazing conceptual paintings by Michaelé Rose Watson. 

The walls are adorned with rich colors and textures representing sea creature and environments, shells, octopus, jellyfish on thick-depthed box structures. An oversized canvas hovers near the entrance with deep reds and burnt oranges showing space as shadowed layers and folded illusion.

Watson says about her artwork, "I continue to work in mixed media but now from a conceptual point of view.  My ideas and forms are influenced by how we as humans interact with Nature.  All the choices we make affect everything and everyone around us.  My work helps to remind us of the choices and responsibilities we must consider."

En plain Air in New Bern, North Carolina. Some days it rains and Lisa sits under the cover of the Baxter doorway with easel and canvas. The Rainy Day Painting scene captures the streetscape starting with the Town Hall on the right, panning left to the Episcopal Church, Baxter Clock, The Old Elks Lodge Building and the Studio 323 Sign. Even though the scene is captured on rainy days with grey drizzling skies, Lisa paints blue in hopes of sunshine.
