20 Cool Points for Joan!


20 Cool Points for Joan!!!
Congratulations
- Post & Courier Artist of the Week -


"Blanket"

Our good friend, Joan Alden, was just selected as The Post & Courier's "Local Artist of the Week"! (click here to check out the article)  A revolving showcase of Joan's work has been showcased here at the KSKC showroom since November. (click here for previous post with slideshow and more info )  As is the case with most of our clients & guests - Joan's unique technique captivates and draws us into the paintings on a deeply emotional level.  Her work can be both dark and mysterious but uniquely whimsical at the same time.  


"Calligraphy"


One of my personal favorites, Calligraphy (sorry - not for sale), catches your eye with a background full of movement - deep ocean blues & greens - while an intriguing white focal point, almost appearing to be the product of a calligrapher's hand, pulls you in closer to the painting to investigate.  Only once you've walked across the room to reach the painting do you realize that this elegant calligraphy like symbol is actually two dogs - one sniffing the other in the "appropriate dog sniffing area".  

On top of our excitement about Joan's publicity - we received seven new paintings this week that show a whole new side of her unique ability to blend reality with abstraction.  This new selection of artworks has been getting a lot of attention already - feel free to take a peek during our showroom hours (M-F 10-6 / Sat 11-5) or we are happy to accommodate appointments outside of business hours.
