The sun was splitting the stones in Carrick-on-Shannon last Sunday and a fresh spring breeze gently filtered the river air through the town. It truly was a great day to be alive. We opened the gates at 3.30 p.m. just to let the Sunday afternoon strollers wander down to the gallery. Some came out of curiosity, some for a love of art, and perhaps a few came because of the obligatory free wine that comes with an Art opening. It was a lovely atmosphere, even though the numbers in attendance were a little under what we were hoping for.
One of the things that really impressed us was the amount of people that showed up who were strangers to us at the Morpheus gallery. It was a really lovely feeling to be showing such wonderful art to a fresh faces. The artists that came for the opening were equally impressed and although financially the opening was not as big a success as we were hoping for, there were several other positives to take from the show. The images from the opening itself are currently not available but we should have them by tomorrow so we'll have them up soon enough.
If you haven't been to see the show, please feel free to drop into see us, as there really is some quality work on show. Thanks to everyone who did come, to the artists, and to you for taking the time to read this.
Talk to you tomorrow,
The Morpheus Muse
