JULY DONNA BELL Art on Exhibit: July 1 - August 2, 2010 Donna Bell, long time resident of Lakeside, Michigan and Chicago, has drawn and sculpted in the past but did not paint until 2002, when she began studying watercolor with artist Jim McComb of Union, Pier. Her first exhibition of watercolors took place in 2005 at Lovell & Whyte in Lakeside and sold out at the opening reception. She has since garnered commissions for paintings of clients, various cats, dogs and horses. In addition to Donna’s watercolors, this show features a sculpture of a horse composed entirely of pieces of wood from her fireplace kindling box. Her paintings display her love of nature as well as her love for animals, both large and small.

During this exhibit he will present an array of watercolor paintings depicting the impressions of his gardens and the rural setting of Harbor Country. Dave has been painting at his studio in the New Buffalo area for the past sixteen years. His watercolors take you a little closer to the subject matter and each painting has a different approach to his traditional methods. He likes to give the viewer another look, a closer look, at the floral patterns and the colors of the natural setting. Most of his work, when weather permits is painted on site within the many gardens that surround his studio. He exhibits his work at local businesses, from his gallery/studio and the annual one person show at the Vickers Theatre. For the past five years his work has been included during the art festival at the Schoolhouse Shops with three shows during the winter months in Naples, Florida.
