Cherie Lester Mixed Media -- July 2011
Lewes, Delaware last summer.
If you're in the area of Lewes/Rehoboth this summer, feel free to
make an appointment & stop by my temporary studio to check out some new work.

two works on paper, nfs
Thought I'd take a break from my summer commission work to post some photos that have been lingering in my iPhone. Two pix show a project I recently finished at the offices of Texas Instruments in the beautiful Willard Hotel office building in downtown DC. We recently had them framed (I found a great & reasonable framer downtown for residential/commercial projects if you're interested) and they'll be delivered and hung any day.
The other pix show a few recent pieces not yet posted on my blog. Some I still have, others are gone - but many more are on the way. For the rest of the summer, I'll be splitting my time between my studio here in ultra-steamy DC and a temporary studio spot in Lewes, Delaware. I doubt I'll be at Eastern Market much, so feel free to contact me to see new works if you're in DC or near Rehoboth/Lewes Beach. I have many new pieces underway in preparation for my next art show - Arts on Foot - which takes place mid-September in Penn Quarter. Always a great show and I'll post more info about it as it nears. Inquiries are welcome: cherielester@prodigy.net
Thanks much & have a great summer! Cherie

The artists and craftspeople also donate works to the show’s raffle and silent auction in order to raise even more funds for deserving charities!
