Gallery 50
Special Reception
This week, Baltimore-based artist, David Buckley Good, comes to Gallery 50 for a special reception. After beginning his career as a surrealist painter, Good gradually transitioned into the realm of traditional realism. He now teaches at The Schuler School of Fine Arts and The Mitchell School of Fine Arts in Baltimore, but from 5:00 to 8:00 on Friday night, he’ll be visiting with fellow artists and other members of the community in downtown Waynesboro. Wine and light refreshments will be served.
Featured Entertainment
The duo of Pat McNamee and Erin Regan will be providing a soundtrack for the reception. Regan’s vocals and piano skills combined with McNamee’s flute and saxophone had entertained audiences during the initial “Destination ARTS!” initiative last summer. Both currently teach at the Cumberland Valley School of Music.
42 West Artists Co-Op
Over at the Artists Co-Op, “Wine Down Fridays” continue with the music of Patric Schlee beginning at 5:00.
Saturday, May 24
David Buckley Good returns to Gallery 50 on Saturday to present a free demonstration of his oil painting techniques. Between the hours of 1:00 and 3:00 p.m., visitors will be able to witness the artist in action and ask him questions about his paint subjects, which range from European and American landscapes to still-life and the figure.
Oil work will also be on display at 42 West ARTS on Saturday afternoon. Painter Tom Tholen will be demonstrating an oil wash portrait from 12:00 to 3:00.
