Cherie Lester Mixed Media -- July 2011

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

Lots of New Work Hanging Now - March 2011 @ Vastu

New art exhibit featuring Cherie Lester and Emilie Keim

JANUARY 24, 2011 · POSTED IN ARTISTS

Vastu is pleased to welcome artists Cherie Lester and Emilie Keim.

SOLD

The recent works of Cherie Lester are inspired by her many years of study of architectural elements. These new abstract paintings are part of her continuing series of textural, mixed media, decollaged works on paper, wood and fabric. Comforting and strong, these pieces offer strength and solidity, with wisps of whimsy.

Emilie Keim works with urban landscape and row-homes of the neighborhoods around her.She is intrigued with painting close-up views of backyards and rooms. Honest paint on board and a blend of reality with abstract style makes her work impressionistic, and comforting. Her color selection is exquisite. This body of work documents the personal spaces, domestic life and privacy within her home city, Philadelphia.

When: January 25 – March 28

Where: Vastu, 1829 14th Street NW, Washington, DC 20009

202-234-8344

New Work: January 2011 @ Vastu till March
