Bella Fiore announces a new addition to our family of displaying artists.  Teresa Mihalko Harbert is a local artist trained in the art of Pysanky.    

Teresa stumbled into the shop awhile ago to purchase tickets for the
Fair Oaks Theater Festical production of Minnie's Boys. Noticing all the great art we had up in the shop, she asked if we ever displayed local artists? I said we tried to when ever possible to feature local artists. I asked her if she was an artist and Teresa said yes. What is your medium I asked?  Eggs, she replied.  I looked puzzeled and she then said Pysanky it is an old Ukranian art form of coloring different types of eggs. We are glad to announce that Teresa Mihalko Harbert will be our featured artist for Second Saturday in August. She will be demonstrating her art form all evening. 


We have featured some of her work in the below photos.  You can read more about Teresa on
the Art Gallery page or on her website.  

Think you are interested in learning Pysanky?  Teresa also offers classes for those wishing to learn Pysanky.   

Come in and see how this fabulous colorful art is painstakingly approached.

 
 
We enjoyed another wonderful artwalk during last weeks Second Saturday as lots of new folks came out to check out art displays and new participants at Encore Home Furnishings and Art and Slocum House.  Momentum has continued to build as we look forward to adding even more venues next month to display art as well as provide other services, entertainment, or just to remain open for visitors to have even more to see and to enjoy.  Congratulations to Charmaine Austin who is the winner the 2nd Saturday drawing.  Charmain visited 5 of our 7 locations open in the Fair Oaks Village during Second Saturday and won a professional photography sitting with local photographer Michael Taylor.  Stay tuned for next month when we look forward to adding even more partners in the Fair Oaks Village for Second Saturday festivities.  Have a favorite business in the village?  Be sure to tell them to stay open for Second Saturday and come on down for a visit.  A wonderful night of art, entertainment, community and good free fun!Thank you to all who came out, and to Michael Taylor for donating his professional photography services.
