Last Thursday, I attended the opening of Ostinelli and Priest’s exhibition ‘Animal Magic’ at Gallery Zozimus, 56 Francis Street, Dublin 8. I liked their more minimalist pieces like ‘Class Act’, ‘Charlotte Grey’ and ‘Rhino’. These pieces represent a greyhound, horse and rhino respectively. Their exhibition runs until 31st May. Classy.
Last night, I attended the opening of Gerard Hegarty’s exhibition ‘The Roads Less Travelled’ at Ranelagh Arts Centre, 26 Ranelagh, Dublin 6. There was a lovely play of colour and plenty of life in Gerard’s paintings. I saw the influence of Paul Cezanne in many of his landscapes and Edouard Manet in his seascapes. It was a beautiful evening and the musician who attended was very good, Gerard’s exhibition will run until 28th August 2018.

Christine Loh at Reds
Tonight, I attended the opening of 'Unity', Christine Loh's exhibition at Reds Gallery, 21 Dawson Street, Dublin 2 D02 TK33. Christine's paintings were large, colourful and chearful. Most of them featured flowers. The venue was busy. People came and went. My favourite painting was 'Miracle Blossom'. It reminded me of Van Gogh's Sunflowers. Reds Gallery was up about three flights of stairs but was well worth the climb. Christine's exhibition will run until 13th Nov 2024.

I also attended the opening of Robert Ballagh's exhibition at the Gorey Gallery, 20 Molesworth Street, Dublin 2 last night. This opening was likewise very busy.
I particularly liked Robert's self-portraits. They were well executed and observed. His exhibition will continue onto the 3rd May 2024.

Finally got around to practice blogging on Tumblr before going to my computer course tonight. I meant to do this before hand but time just flies. Classy for the moment.
Last night, I attended the opening of 'Wild Things - The Prints They Leave...' at Gallery Zozimus, 57 Francis Street, Dublin 8. This exhibition features ceramic sculpture by Ivan Panov and paintings by Ann McKenna. Both artists had created their work on the team of animals.
Ivan's sculptures are full of charm and humor. He repurposes items in his work e.g a lamp stand to denote an owl's feet. Ann's paintings glow with life and personality. I particularly liked her painting of an orangutan, very well observed.
Lots of people had come to the venue. The atmosphere was quite relaxed.

I have attended the opening of 'Petals and Pulp', Vera's Klute's exhibition at the Molesworth Gallery, 16 Molesworth Street, Dublin 2. 🌳 Her paintings done in oil on linen or digital watercolour show woodland scenes, foulage and individual flowers. 🌻 I was impressed with the amount of detail that Vera had included in her paintings. A particular example is one of her larger paintings called 'Clearing' which features lots of fallen branches amongst trees. 🌲 I also loved 'Lustre', a painting of foliage due to its vibrant colours. 🏵 Vera has also included a couple of Jesmonite on concrete sculptures in her show. Her exhibition will run until 23rd Dec 2024.
