Posters
in the window of the Lincoln Art Institute for the current art
opening, “From the World of Books,” and for the annual Young Artists
Show that takes place in May. “From the World of Books” poster was
created by Mitch Douglas. |
“War and Peace and Tolstoy” by Tony
Shuff inspired by the Russian classic “War and Peace.” |
|
|
“Speedy Reader” by Bev Noble.
“I can read with my eyes shut” by Dr. Seuss is the inspiration for
Bev’s work. |
|
“Pride and Prejudice” by Deborah
Owens. An elegant rendering from Jane Austen’s masterpiece. |
|
“Remembering Ernest” by Suzanne Faulkner. Faulkner found her
inspiration in “Islands in the Stream” by Papa Hemingway, one of his
last novels set during World War II. |
|
“Socked In-Unchuck, British Columbia” by Pam Moriearty, inspired by
“Milestones on Vancouver Island” by C. Lyons. |
|
“Biblio-wallets” by Nancy Raulings Saul. Each wallet expresses a
different literary theme. Nancy combines art and practicality as
each wallet can be slipped into a pocket or purse and will hold
cash, credit cards, and an ID. Think how cool it would be to pull
one of these unique wallets out of your pocket at the supermarket
check-out. |

Artists and guests mingle around art and a sumptuous spread of
appetizers for an elegant opening night at the Lincoln Art
Institute. Margie Douglas brought a bow tie pasta salad that was a
hit. Nancy Rollings Saul’s cherry strudel always had a crowd around
it. Pam Shuff supplied a very tasty egg salad in place of her usual
everything deviled eggs. Pam Moriearty brought a cheese board with
all sorts of selections. |
|
Artist Cheryl Spove and Ron Keller discuss her love for the poetry
of Walt Whitman. Ron mentioned that Whitman was a great admirer of
Abraham Lincoln, and noted in his writings that Whitman always waved
at President Lincoln when he passed in his carriage. |
