The operation is almost complete!

We were up late into the night painting and drinking coffee last night and we still didn't get it completely finished! I think MDF must drink white paint like my uncle drinks whiskey! Seriously, I don't know how many coats are on there, but I can tell you its more than I expected it would need.
Anyway, we are almost there now, there are just a few touch ups to go and the back room will be complete and ready to be all pictured up. We're really looking forward to the new exhibition actually. The artists showing have really given us some great work.
Michael Absalom has submitted some beautiful paintings that are nice and small, but loaded with colour. He has also submitted a fantastic range of prints that we are delighted to show. Blacksmith Michael Budd has created two new pieces for the show. One of which is a rugged but serene wall hanging piece, which is deceptively light in appearance. Other new work on show comes from well known local artist Sandra Vernon, print maker Jenny Spain and some new paintings from Tommy Soro.
It looks like being a really interesting combination of work all things are considered. If you miss the opening or are a fan of the gallery but living outside Ireland, we will have a full run down of how the show went, along with images of the work on Tuesday.

Take care
