Artist’s Reception

Posted by: on: October 18, 2011

Howdy! Thought all you ranch-hands and lovers of farm animals might enjoy seeing the work of Fremont artist Pamela Hynek.
Hynek works in oils and acrylics from photographs she takes out on the Back 40 and at bull riding competitions.
They are awesome.
You’ll get a chance to meet this fine filly on October 23 when Gallery: Art & Creativity Center has an open house in her honor. The hours are from two to five.
The gallery is located 1 mile south of 21-C going into Comstock, NE. Ya jest cain’t miss it.
There are other opportunities to see “Back to the Farm” as it will hang in the gallery until Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend. The gallery is open by calling ahead or taking a chance I’ll be there. However, I just live next door, south, but you’ll need to holler real loud to get my attention! My phone is 308.215-0076.    You can see more of her work at www.hynekart.com.

Wow, wow, wow!  I got Honorable Mention for “A Ram I Am II,” my watercolor of a goat at a Long Pine I saw during an  en pleine expedition last summer. Not only did it get what I consider a prestigious award, but it will be one of the paintings chosen to be critiqued by the judge at the ANAC banquet on Friday night.  PTL!

Located in rural Nebraska  southwest of Comstock, NE, Gallery: Art & Creativity Center is housed in a 100-plus church which served the once-thriving community of Wescott.  Acquired in 2005, the sanctuary has numerous exhibits and competitions throughout the year, beginning with the Open Art & Photography Competition held each March.  Each summer a themed show, beginning with Winds of Life, Horses, Cowgirls and Cowpokes, and All Creatures Great and  Small.  The gallery annually hosts the ANAC (Association of Nebraska Art Clubs) Travel Show, consisting of the winners of that year’s state conference competition.

The lower level is a teaching/learning area where Vissi d’Arte Club meets, where art lessons are given to art learners of all ages, and where occasionally folk gather for open house receptions.

Individuals and groups are encouraged to visit the gallery,  which is open by appointment or by chance.  However, the artist, Sue Oiler Dowse, lives next door south and gladly opens the gallery for those interested.  Contact (308)215-0076 or (308)628-4370), e-mail at playinpaint@nctc.net, or snail mail at 80797 Oak Grove Road, Comstock, NE 68828-2215.
