It’s finally May and summer is promising to deliver all the fun and sunshine we can stand after the long winter. May long weekend, as the season opener to holidays and travel, will be marked here at The Artym Gallery by an exhibition showcasing the fine art wearables of master jeweller Bayot Heer and the gleeful paintings of Angela Morgan.
Bayot describes his new work as “casual and fresh, yet still maintaining the clean architectural lines. My main focus for this year has been challenging the conventional ring ideas by introducing new shapes that are both unusual in design and comfortable to wear.” The theme of “Form” is carried throughout his unique collection. His earrings range from the simple stud design to more elaborate yet classic earrings. Rounding off his new work are forged bracelets in Sterling silver, 18 karat gold and featuring coloured stones with accent diamonds.
Angela Morgan’s show pieces are a treasure to behold. She says “My paintings will be all things. Classic May long weekend kick off celebrations in the great outdoors! A small menagerie of Canadian wildlife… camping AND glamping … boating, bathing, tromping, splashing … petting zoo and merry go rounds!!! Think explorers and crocodile hunters, birders and collection specialists … spring gardening and green thumbs —- horticulturalist delights.” Here at the gallery, we truly can’t wait to unveil the show!
The show opens at 10 a.m. on Saturday, May 21, with both artists in attendance from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The show continues to May 27. If you can’t make it in person, please view online at www.artymgallery.com.
