It's Show Season

It's Show Season

My artist friend, Elizabeth Fontaine-Barr and I hosted a joint show at Tampa's Red Door no. 5 gallery on April 7. What a beautiful show it is with the combination of Elizabeth's expressionistic landscapes and my abstract art. And, the title "Color Chemistry" couldn't be more perfect as we are both paint with bright, bold colors.  I thought I'd share a few photos from the evening because we are so proud of this exhibit.

If you're in the area and would like to see the show, please contact me and I'd be happy to arrange a visit at your convenience. Photos do not do this show justice.

The weekend of this show I was a very busy artist. The next day I had a popup shop at our local Pottery Barn in Hyde Park and then on Sunday I attended and volunteered at the Las Damas de Artes annual Sunday in the Arts fundraiser where one of my paintings sold. An exhausting but wonderful art filled weekend.

I'm searching for new venues to show my art friends. I'll keep you posted on where I'll be. In the meantime, please visit my website for new works added weekly and daily posts on my Facebook page. 

Thank you so much for continued friendship and support. It means the world to me! Wishing you a beautiful weekend to come wherever you are.

Your artist friend, Mary

Hello Spring

Hello Spring

Daisies on Parade no 1

March is almost over and today is the first day of Spring. Either 2017 is really in a hurry to be over or it's just me. I've been so busy these first three months of the year and I just want to share a little of what is going on in my life.  

After starting the year out with a solo show at the historic Rialto Theatre in January I've been painting non-stop preparing for my next show in April at Red Door Gallery no. 5 in Tampa.  I'm so lucky to be sharing this show with my good friend and artist, Elizabeth Fontaine-Barr. The show's title is Color Chemistry and it couldn't be a more perfect fit for us. If you're in town I invite you out to see us on Friday, April 7.  Please visit my Facebook page for more details.   

If you are not a regular on Facebook you may be missing out on some of my new artwork. I apologize that it's been a while since my last blog. I'll share a few of the new pieces with you. 

Small Blessings no. 2, 10" x 10" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas

Desert Varnish, 20" x 24" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas

Peaceful Journey, 20" x 20" acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas

Oh, and did I mention I accept commissions? I'm currently starting work on two commission pieces and can't wait to see my collectors reactions when I present them with their finished pieces.

If you're on Instagram I invite you to follow me at mbmirabal.  I share daily and  love interacting with my followers.  

Well, I should get back to work my friends.  Thanks for visiting with me and please feel free to leave comments. I love reading them and always respond. Have a wonderful Spring and please feel free to share my site with your art loving friends.
