The Opening of my Exhibition “Dream BIG!” in the Boathouse Gallery

The Opening of my Exhibition "Dream BIG!" in the Boathouse Gallery

Last Saturday saw the opening of my solo exhibition, “Dream BIG!” which is on for the whole month of September in the Boathouse Gallery, Kinsale, Co.Cork.

Here is the little video I had done to promote it, in case you haven’t seen it!

I made my way to Kinsale early afternoon and stopped at the gallery to see how the paintings all looked on the wall…

 Liz and Gerard did a great job hanging the show! I then walked around the town to drop a few postcards I had made to promote the show… Kinsale is such a fabulous place…! And this is one of my favorite corners in the town:

This shop is all bling… Ladies, you would feel like a kid walking in a candy store!

A hair apointment later, (actually, “Wonderland” sold when I was getting my hair done!) it was onwards to Jim Edwards, for a yummy half lobster (Kinsale is by the sea!) and a glass of Sauvignon Blanc…

Then at 7 pm I made my way back to the gallery, where there was a good few people…!

Friends from Killarney, Ronnie Moore and Kathleen O’Brian, Ronnie is a fantastic watercolour artist..  

Kathleen again and her husband Pat, it was for him that I did the commission a few months ago..

Owners of the gallery, Liz and Gerard…

A LOVELY couple who bought “The Summit”, himself is a fellow Canadian and his wife from Pensylvania, it was great meeting them!

I love red dots… 😉

With my first sale of the show, “Wonderland” and my boyfreind Stephen who graduated from UCC yesterday!

Thank you all for the encouragements and well wishes…!

Talk soon,

Amélie
