Anne’s art exhibit at King Street Coffee, 12/1/2023
Big congrats to @annerulethompson on her solo art exhibit at @king.street.coffee! I can’t remember the last time I saw Anne, who started out teaching art in Loudoun with me in 2001, and it was so good to finally see her and her amazing work in person at one of my favorite old Leesburg haunts. I’ve seen a lot of great little art exhibits at this wonderful space, but Anne’s work really elevated the presence of the place, and was perfect for the holiday season. It was also great to catch up with some other colleagues and friends who I haven’t seen in quite some time, and I simply couldn’t go home without purchasing one of Anne’s pieces - one of which first grabbed my attention online a little while back, and one that could actually fit on my walls. I ended up finding the best spot for it to hang, right by the new painting I bought from my friend Jeff, from his recent exhibit at @artsoundlanguage - they seem to compliment each other so well, and are the first pieces of art people will see when they walk through my front door. Anne also kindly gifted me a gorgeous Christmas ornament that she made as well, and I’m so glad I decided on putting up @krisloyaart’s little pink tree this year, so this little beauty, along with a few others, will have a place to be displayed during the holiday season. #encaustic #encausticpainting #encausticart #art #artwork #artistsoninstagram #artistoninstagram #mixedmediaart #natureart #landscape #skyscape #seascape #supportlivingartists #kingstreetcoffee #leesburgva #leesburgvirginia #loudounart #artexhibit #soloexhibit #shareyourwork #annerulethompson #jeffdukaart
