Artist Statement “Heatstrokes” Ann Trainor Domingue

The heat, sunlight, air, color palette, geography, weather, island life,
flowers, fish, waterfront, people, and language have all contributed to
this series. I feel I have only scratched the surface of what inspires me
about the Caribbean--in particular St. Martin, Barbados, and Tortola.
My travels to the islands has always been an overwhelming experience in
color overload-- a joyful thing for sure. Capturing details and inspiring
landscapes and local scenes by camera along with on-site (plein air)
sketches, I hold on to these little impressions until I sense that I am
ready to work on a series of pieces that embody my point of view.
Being a lifelong New Englander surrounded by neutral grays and muted
tones, the eye-popping cacophony of color of the islands is quite a jolt.
There is nothing shy about color in paradise.
Enjoy the heat.

Open House and Pop-up Art Gallery at Goffstown Area Orthodontics

 

GOFFSTOWN AREA ORTHODONTICS TURNS OFFICE INTO GALLERY FOR THE EVENING SHOWCASING LOCAL ARTIST’S WORK

Goffstown Area Orthodontics is hosting another Pop-up Art Gallery, Thursday, March 29th, from 6-8pm at their office, 17A Tatro Drive, Unit 103. All are invited to come and meet local artists and enjoy their artwork in the practice’s office space. According to Dr. Philip Mansour, “As we built our new facility, it occurred to us that the design and color scheme lent itself to showcase the talents of the local art community.” Local artists have been hanging their work in the office, and additional pieces will be brought in for the Pop-up Art Gallery. Watercolors, acrylics, photographs, sculptures and more will be available for viewing and for sale by the artists.

Next weeks Pop-up Art Gallery is their second event, the first being back in December. The last event was such a success they plan on continuing the public showings. This season’s works include those by Judy McLean, Peggy Hatfield , Thomas Wright, and Terri McKinnon. “Our practice has prided itself with community involvement and this effort represents our latest chapter. We understand that artists often struggle to showcase their talent; we are pleased to be able to assist,” Dr. Mansour added.

He went on to say “It is certainly exciting to create a gallery type atmosphere for our patients, their families and the community. We are glad to be able to introduce some of our young patients for the first time to the appreciation of art in a gallery format.” Light fare and refreshments will be served during the event. Tatro Drive is off Mast Road in Goffstown, to the rear of the Shell Station. Goffstown Area Orthodontics is on the first floor, in the front of the building. Parking is available, and the facility is completely accessible.
