NEW SAINT HILAIRE is launching this summer ART MAIL

By -
Thinking of all my fans..who are not travelling to France,,and even if you go to France,,Saint Hilaire might be not on your "route"..so let's get creative..and do our own artmail project.
FIRST STEP
think about a word or a sentence,..that is exactly written the same way in french and in English ,,and means the same,,,if you can't find one....talk about it around you and you will find quite quickly someone who is going to help you,...and last resort you can go online..https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=5858114974940863857#editor/target=post;postID=1687985803079845669;onPublishedMenu=allposts;onClosedMenu=allposts;postNum=1;src=postname
and you will fingd a list of what is called "COGNATES" ..
(what an uggly name!)..
SECOND STEP
Send a letter with this word or sentence or locution written,.. drawn ..painted,....embroidery.... you can add..the story behind: why this word, how you found it..decorate it ..draw..spit..whatever..NO

THIRD STEP you have to SEND IT BY MAIL WITH A STAMP  to the following address:
NEW SAINT HILAIRE 2015 /LMCOLLAGE
Eglise du vieux Saint Hilaire
87800 Saint Hilaire les places
FRANCE

and I will exhibit it *, take a picture of it and post the photograph on this  Facebook page with your name if you signed it.

meet the artist Liam Roberts

By -
Liam Roberts’ fertile imagination transmutes images into abstract-like compositions of strik- ing energy and brushwork. He says that he is not a maker of pictures, but a maker of paintings, and that the viewer completes the work, not simply by looking but by the labour of seeing. Shakespeare, as usual, says it best: “Let every eye negotiate for itself . . .” Roberts’ mediums are acrylic, gouache, collage and ink. This show comprises recent and earlier works. Liam has exhibited in New York, London, Paris, Palm Springs, Geneva and Nicosia. He is represented in Dublin by Peppercanister Gallery.   www.liamroberts.com  /  roberts l@copper.ne
