November Art Walk

Hey, hey, the Arts Council has announced a November Art Walk. Not for pseudo-artists like me of course, because they cannot any longer provide indoor display space, and I choose not to display in the great out of doors--the weather don't you know.
But, assuming the tree lighting takes place again at the same time, folks should come out to see art and watch the great tree light up once again, despite President Trump.
Now, just cuz I will not be displaying, doesn't mean I will not be creating some watchable art.  So, here below, I give you the Richard Schmidt November Art Walk creations.  All the art is based on a watery theme. Well, except for the first six, which I have just added below. I just created them, just for fun, don't you know.

The Seasons Change

A Call for Change
The Alexander County Library in Taylorsville, NC is hosting an art exhibit for photographic artists. They are looking for artists to examine and portray the changing seasons. In their words:

"Hopefulness? Gratitude? Openness? Whatever it is, it's welcome.”

“A Promised Change” is open to photography submissions that explore the changing beauty of the natural world as well as images that explore the more expansive theme. The exhibit provides a space for photographers to tell unique stories that resonate. We welcome your diverse artistic interpretations inspired by the broader themes, as literal as landscape photography, as experimental as abstracts, or as personal as photographs that speak to you of seasonal change."

Real artists wishing to submit works should contact:

Main Library Exhibiting Artist Series Curator, Miranda Burgin, to ask questions, discuss ideas, or to confirm your participation in the exhibit: mirandaburgin@gmail.com<mailto:mirandaburgin@gmail.com> or (828) 632-2256.

You may also contact the Alexander Library Director, Laura Crooks at lcrooks@alexandercountync.gov<mailto:lcrooks@alexandercountync.gov> or (828) 632-4058.

Their planned exhibition will run from November 7th through the end of December. As a local pseudo-artist, I appreciate their call for serious artistic interpretations of the seasonal nature of our world. Although I would not presume to submit work for this serious show, I exhibit below my own modest interpretations of the changing face of nature as we proceed through the seasonal shifts in color, temperature and Mother Nature's endless variations in artsy displays. So, here they are and may I wish the real artists a wonderful showing of their works.
