Surrounded in Love: Must Love Art

Barbara and I with our two Host Couple families in front of the Wall of Hearts

It was the Best of Times!  And the show is still up through 9/27.

Our Wedding and Must Love Art Show Opening Reception were everything we’d hoped for.  Many of our family and friends joined us for the party of a lifetime – and the party carried on throughout the weekend.

the full heart wall installation

The wall of Hearts -nearly 100 of them in all – were made by 76 of our artist friends from 13 states.  We were encircled with love – these heart works and our family and friends gathered ’round – as we got hitched. 

The rest of the gallery is filled with over 150 new art works by Barbara and myself (paintings, wire sculpture, and textile wall art) grouped into a number of themes – our work plays well together!  The show has received rave reviews and our local paper covered the story in this Coloradoan article.

Most of the art in the show is for sale and over 50 of the Hearts have already sold!  The Artists receive the money from sales of their work, with a portion of sales proceeds being donated to 2 local charitable causes, the Animal House and Keith Jentzsch Medical Fund.

All of the available Heart artworks and Barbara’s work are available for sale through the Must Love Art online store located here. Check out all the amazing ways these artists responded to the Heart Art theme!

My work is available through my online store.

The exhibit has been extended through Sept. 27, so this is the last week to go see it.  Location is Carnegie building, 200 Matthews St, Gallery hours are 12-6pm, Wed through Saturday.  We will have “professional” photos from the wedding ceremony and show opening in a few weeks.   For now, here’s a peek at some photos I took of the show.
