Downtown Hanover to Host First Friday Art Walk on July 10
- Aldus Brewing will be hosting Barbara DeUgarte. Barbara has had an interest in art since their childhood through their career in medicine. Most of her free time throughout her life has been spent in the studying and practicing of different forms of art. Barbara has learned from many different artists and has incorporated their teachings into her own technique that she has worked on for many years. She uses the inspiration of the battlefield and surrounding countryside for many of her paintings. Most of her work centers on the effects of light on a form and color and how this can be used to elicit feeling in the viewer.
- Fat Bat Brewing presents artist Riley Slee as part of First Friday Artwalk. Riley specializes in fashion design, fiber, and fashion illustration. She strives to create unique garments and accessories that push boundaries and promote unabashed self-expression. She incites confidence and fosters community through her work. From finely tailored menswear to counterculture streetwear, her range of design knows no bounds.
- Hanover Area Arts Guild will be hosting their “Red, White, and Blue” event in recognition of America’s 250th birthday. They will be featuring an exhibit of members’ work using the red, white, and/or blue color scheme. Visitors will have the opportunity to vote for a People’s Choice award winner so go cast your ballot! The art is on display through August 1st.
- Little Fox Coffee & Books will be hosting local ceramicist Rebekah Brown. Rebekah’s work consists of a variety of mugs, plates, vases, and another ceramic homeware. Her work is inspired by mother nature and the unique magic that can be found in the mundane. She grew up loving all forms of art and found ceramics in high school. She dedicates enormous amounts of time, energy and love into her art, and it is her hope that you will feel this when you take a sip from your mug or put flowers in your vase. Little Fox Coffee & Books will also be hosting local artist Eric Heinrich. Eric creates art using subjects that they choose and explore intuitively. They are a self-taught artist who always drew and painted when they were young but somehow drifted away from art. They have been rediscovering art for the last 5 years and focusing most of their energy on exploring all aspects of the process. Much of their work consists of upcycling unwanted vinyl records by painting them with acrylic. They are drawn toward abstract art and surrealistic themes.
- Sacred Heart Tattoo will be hosting Crystal Hartlaub. They are a local artist working in watercolor, acrylic, and pour painting. Her work explores the meeting point of abstraction and nature, where control gives way to flow, and texture becomes memory. Each piece is a balance of intention and chance.
- The Gallery at The Old Post Office will feature twenty-seven artworks on the theme of fiction, where things may not be as they seem. Up one floor, Andy Smith’s Visual Studio will be open with numerous clay monoprints.
- The Serpent’s Key is is hosting artist Luisa Carella. Luisa is a self-taught artist! She mostly paints in acrylic but also has a love and interest for pottery and mosaic. Luisa is fascinated by Mother Nature and studying how her colors interact in real life. She paints a lot of animals, and still lives, although recently, she’s been working on a more narrative style. Luisa wants to create pieces that say something about the world around us, as well as the elaborate world within.
