Gwenlyn Norton's Art Shows are Fabulous!

Friday evening Rita Frayer, Charlotte Gesling and I attended Gwenlyn's Artist Reception of her new show being held at the Coffee House of Peace Lutheran Church in Camarillo. The well attended event was a terrific showcase of Gwenlyn's talent. All pieces were lovely, from the smaller colored pencil pieces, through the incredible colored glass mosaic designs, and up to her Grand Polyptic suitably mounted on a bright red wall! If you have not seen Gwenlyn's work, you really should visit this show, titled, "Slices of Life" before it ends.

Then, Sunday afternoon, while strolling in Downtown Ventura, we stopped into the new CSUCI art gallery. It is located at the corner of California and Main. I expected a small display, and was totally surprised by the vast collection of work being shown (on two floors). Gwenlyn's work is here as well and includesa very elaborately mounted, free standing Polyptic.

We are so fortunate to have such a talented woman in our midst.
