Doughnuts and Art are a pair made in heaven

Members Salon Exhibition at the Falchi

Long Island City Artists has secured a wonderfully large space to feature the artwork of ALL its members in a month-long exhibition at the Falchi Building in Long Island City. This salon-style exhibition runs from Sunday, October 4 through October 31.

I will be showing my painting “EU Timetable“, a mixed media diptych, 24″x48”, $2000.  I created this work after a group tour of the Amalfi Coast in Italy.  I loved the cobble stone streets, the gold-leafed churches and the colorful fishing boats.  However, I was unprepared for the hectic pace of traveling with a tour group with timetables and schedules that were inflexible.  My painting incorporates all these elements into a colorful, energetic collage.  Look closely to see some of my travel maps I incorporated into the work.

As a side benefit, The Falchi Building is also the home of The Doughnut Plant where you can get your fix of gourmet fancy doughnuts.  Known for their unusually creative flavors such as Tres Leches, Creme Brulee, Rose, Hazelnut Chocolate, Peanut Butter & Blackberry Jam and much more, I can assure you that your tastebuds won’t get bored.

The Falchi Building and The Doughnut Plant are located at 37-00 47th Avenue, Long Island City, NY.  The exhibition is open on weekends from 12-6 pm.
