An Evening at the Tyler Art Gallery in Oswego, N.Y.

This evening I went to the Tyler Art Gallery with Beth Brandkamp, one of the artists in the show. Nineteen contemporary quilt artists had been selected by Pat Pauly, the curator, to participate. Its a beautiful setting and the quilts all looked wonderful.
Jeanne Beck and Pat Faulkner's work.

In the gallery at the opposite end of the hall was an exhibit of traditional nature paintings from the permanent collection to contrast with the art quilts. In among the paintings was a special display of eco-tankers...a concept of tankers who would sail all around the globe growing fruits and vegetables. The "boats" were made by school children as a special project.
