The exhibition will run from the 17 September to the 13 October 2010, and I have 17 painting hanging in the gallery. This painting of a woman in the wind is one of the pictures in the exhibition. The Gallery/library is open until 23h30 weekdays and is open on Saturday morning until 1pm.
The staff at the library will put many a gallery to shame. They were incredibly proactive in promoting the event. Special thanks go to Elisa Bento who did the university and me proud.
Without a doubt special thanks go to my family who have always been supportive of my enthusiasm for doing art.
An inauguration is of no user if there is no alcohol, so my dear friend Inês Bernardino supplied the wine from her personal wine farm – Quinta da Sapeira – and what fine wine does she have!! She has won several awards in Europe and has an extensive client base in the north of Europe. If anyone wants to know more I will gladly help with the information.
The other item that made the event so memorable was that anther friend of mine (life is rich when one has so many good friends) played a classical harp during the event. During the solo event she played so well that the hairs on my arm stood up, and at the end, everyone applauded her. I wish her everything of the best in her studies and hope that she does ever so well.
I more than pleased with the number of people that were at the inauguration, and am deeply indebted to the support and encouragement.
