".... si jamais tu mets un texte à l'appui de mes photos et si tu fais référence au magazine du westchester, je tiens à préciser qu'il s'est glissé une petite erreur dans mon profil. Je ne travaille plus au Clay art Center, mais Au Art Life Studio de Port Chester sous la Direction de Ron. C'est un atelier qui permet le travail de la terre, du bois et de la pierre. Bref, tout ce que j'aime.Isa NdlR:(Pour info) Il se trouve que Marie WYATT, a l'origine de l'organisation de la premiere promenade des Artistes et qui depuis a demenage a Bruxelles , a egalement travaille dans cet atelier. Myra Lehman, egalement sculptrice exposant a la premiere promenade chez Marie y travaille toujours. Myra a recu de nombreux awards, notamment au Rye Arts Center juge par Thom Collins, directeur du Neuberger Museum of Art...Que le monde est petit! PS Avec les photos d'aujourd'hui, voici 2 indices pour retrouver les artistes presentes sur le carton d'annonce de la...

Curieuse, Curieux de connaitre .....qui expose a la promenade des artistes et de mettre un nom sur toutes ces petites photos qui composent notre carton d'annonce? J'ai la reponse officielle......\........demain....j'enleve le voile sur les photos de 2 colonnes du haut...

Si vous voulez parler a Fabrice Puissant a propos de ces creations...voila a qui s'adresser:

de FABRICE PUISSANT Voici des photos de présentoirs lumineux. Depuis quelques années, je travaille a l'intégration d'éléments lumineux a base de LED insérés dans des supports en bois. La technique des LED par sa très faible température permet pour la première fois de s'affranchir des dispositifs de refroidissement ou d'isolation. J'ai dernièrement mis au point des chevalets de table utilisant cette technique. Composé d''un cube en bois précieux renfermant une LED et sa pile bouton et d'un porte nom en plexiglass qui lorsqu'il est eclairé émet une lueur bleue très fine qui luit sur le contour de la plaque. La plaque de plexiglass peut soit recevoir un bout de film imprimable transparent ou être directement calligraphiée avec un feutre doré par exemple. a suivre

This is always a big part of suspense in this event. How many houses? Which houses? Am I going to be with my friends? Will I have enough space /light?..In most cases, it goes very smoothly and the real challenge is organizing a nice lunch so we all can share it.. Because in the end.................What really matters? Showing and Selling , yes of course and certainly for the 2 charities which will receive 15% of it.. but also and "surtout" FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN because life is short and friends are important.......... This comment only engages its writer...... As we are entering the last week before Friday when starts "The promenade des Artistes", I will give you details on who is where as you might want to first go and see someone you have seen the last past years.....

Just a little game... Would you be able to name all the artists showing their work on the Postcard? If yes , and with no help from the designer, PLEASE LET US KNOW use the reply comments to share with us all the artists' names PS It sounds like a question that our team of the RALLYE Mille borne de New York could ask....

Elaine Mokhtefi is a painter. She’s a New Yorker who lived for so many years in Paris and Algiers that she admits to being totally confused as to where her emotional identity hails from. She paints what she sees: portraits, landscapes, still life. At this year’s Promenade, she will be showing a series of paintings of the New Mexican mesa in the region around Taos. She will also show portraits of New Yorkers of varied backgrounds and ethnicities, as well as some still life. She has a website: elainemokhtefi.com In addition to painting, she has written travel guides to Paris and to France for a New York publishing house and books for young adults for French publishers, one about the black neighborhoods of New York and one about the Civil War. Her most recent publication is Paris: an illustrated history (Hippocrene Books, New York ) a brief history of that marvelous city.

et pour completer notre mannequin, voici Joelle dont vous pourrez faire la connaissance .......lors de la promenade des artistes, dans la maison de Laurence H, Seven Oaks Lane

This scarf is a unique work. It was created by an artist whose twenty years love affair with textiles still experiences the thrill of discovery. Wear it because it speaks to you and know it echoes a passionate and joyful heart. Joelle Lescornec

"Jordan" Louda came to Paris from Moscow in 1996 with of admiration and curiosity for French culture. With diplomas in hand from Fine Arts and Textile academies, she arrived full of wild ideas and with a few swatches of hand made fabrics, which were the result of her experimentations in developing new textile techniques. Miracles happened… Chanel Couture was her first client! Then followed artistic collaborations with Dior, Lacroix, Ungaro, Mugler and etc. The next miracle happened in New York in 2002. She was shopping at Bergdorf Goodman wearing a Louda jacket when she was noticed. Now Bergdorf Goodman was buying Louda’s clothes. Neiman Marcus came next. America stimulates her to create and produce more and more for the Louda label. She loves it! She works on each piece as if it were a painting. They are all one of a kind, timeless, never out of date, out of touch, out of fashion and always evolving. -- Louda www.loudacollection.com +1 347 968 0629

I Love New York 2007 by Laurence Neron-Bancel I'm not the only one "still" showing at the Promenade des Artistes. I'm 100% sure that Nadine Jalem and I did show at the "first" promenade on a Sunday in 2001. We were in the same house at Marie Wyatt's house in Rye. We won't be able to show it to you now as it has been demolished ...Ah America... I do remember 4 artists showing with us , 2 of them I still meet: Mimi Stuart and Myra Lehman...Looking at artists having shown at the Promenade will be the subject of another serie of posts! Concerning my work, it has changed a lot ...At that time, I was still influenced by England and had realized an "assemblage" about playing golf, special command for Richard' birthday and another one with Tennis Racquet.. I've started showing "more traditionnal" collages in 2002 when the Promenade des Artistes took place in Mamaroneck and Scarsdale; my neighbor's (at the time Muriel and Vince...

HI MY WEBSITE IS www.mariehickman.com Click on VEER and MONSOONIMAGES on the home page. Merci Marie-France Hickman To give you an idea about Marie-France, on her website you can read: ..... Some call fate, while others deem it coincidence. Whatever the cause, professional photographer/photojournalist is passionate about her work. Born of an American father and French mother, Marie Hickman spent her childhood summers on the French Riviera. Her youthful exposure to the vast waters of the Mediterranean as well as a plethora of artists helped her passion for vibrant colors to grow as a child. Naturally, when it came time to choose a field of study, Hickman graduated early within the Honors Program at Marymount College with a Bachelor of Fine Arts; after graduating, she studied Lithography at Pratt Graphic Center. Working in Provence with Lucian Clergue, Picasso's photographer, and world-renowned photographer, Michael Kenna, took her skills to a higher level. Her passion for art expande...
