Krummel provides our first art show

Art Krummel, retired Beacon Journal artist, sent the blog five of his paintings for our first-ever showing of art. Just click on the headline above and enter the display of art. Click on the images to enlarge them and use the arrows to browse back and forth.

The paintings include a spot on Siesta Key Beach at Sarasota, FL, a Christmas still life which Char asked him to paint, a painting of a photo taken by Ken Love and two of the four seasons at Maca Park in Talllmadge. Art provided info for the captions.

But wait!

Don’t you want to know what he and Charlene Nevada have been doing lately? Char’s busy at work so let Art tell you:

“I've been very busy painting nearly every day. I'm trying to get enough work to set up during the Art in the Circle art show this summer. I hope to generate some commissions of pet portraits or kids 'n pets. I also have a couple paintings of family heirlooms: one done for my nephew and his family of all of their treasures; the other is a painting I did of my kids' shoes that I kept from birth until they left the homestead.”

“We have been travelling a bit with cruises in recent years to southern Carribean, Hawaii, western Carribean. We had a kind of reunion beach vacation last summer with the Mezgers, the Reynolds, Marshionne/Mastrionni family. We all vacationed in Garden City just south of Myrtle Beach for years. We all had young kids and we had a great time. Well now the youngest kids are in high school and college. All the kids came except for my daughter Beth and her hubby. It was really fun getting together with them again after a lapse of about 10 years.

“We have a return trip to Hawaii planned for September.. We're staying on land this time with 5 days in Waikiki, and 5 days in Lahiana on Maui. I love Hawaii and am really looking forward to this trip.”
