Seymour Art Design for Living

SEYMOUR Art Gallery, in Deep Cove, is playing around. At least that's the premise behind this summer's annual "Deign for Living" exhibit. One hundred gallery members were invited to "do their creative thing" with a tiny 5x7 oak frame which was issued to them by the gallery staff. The results are fun and surprising and well worth a look. The exhibit opened July 26 and runs until August 27. A special opening was held on August 1 and a many of the artists were in attendance. It was a great atmosphere and a great way to see what's going on.


Lynn Valley's Maria-Teres Vincencio (left) and Deep Cove's Sharon Perkins are both artists who took part in the exhibit.	Face-to-face, artists Maggie Kneer (left) and Lori Tjorhom were both spirits of fun.	She's beautiful and ageless. Artist Olivia Creighton said the exhibit was "absolutely fabulous".	Jean and Ken Fowler were all smiles after viewing the artwork.	Artist Dorothy Doherty (left) was introduced to gallery patrons Warren and Doris McFadyen.

He was framed, literally. Artists Graham Eagle created "Bean Framed".	Celia and Keith Rice-Jones are from Burnaby. They created "Hanging Around" and "Nosy Parker" respectively.	Lisa Vito (left) and Gerri Valle knew some of the artists in attendance and came for a look around.	Checking out the works was (from left) Phil Redford, Kathryn Amisson, Graeme Roberts and Mary Mayrs.	Gallery Curator Carole Badgley is sweet on her fella, namely artist/husband Dennis Badgley.

Deep Cove is home to these two gals. Artists Jean Taylor (left) and Lindsay Ross created "Entangled" and "Once a Tree" respectively.	Volunteer Iris Fenwick kept thirsty guests happy by serving up only the best.

Because the larger photos take us so much memory, I have not posted them here. If you want a copy of one of these larger photos, please feel free to email me at cbarr@westvancouver.com
