Life Expressions: Paintings by the Tuesday Painters of Frederick County
Hello All,
From June 7-29, Links Bridge Vineyards will be hosting an an exhibit of artwork by The Tuesday Painters of Frederick County. This group includes Sandra Cook, Linda Goddard, Saboora Haider, Noralie Katsu, Jodi O’Connell, Don Ouelette, Mary Pfister, Val Raba, Kristin Simanek, and Emily Sloviko.
The Tuesday Painters originated over 33 years ago when Mary Pfister first offered her “Tuesdays with Mary” art instruction. Since that time, artists from those classes, having reached a high level of excellence, have continued to come together on a regular weekly basis. The weekly gatherings in Mary’s studio provide an opportunity for producing paintings and a place to offer and receive support and encouragement. Gathering in the studio provides a comfortable place for the artists to learn, motivate, and inspire each other.

These accomplished painters work in representational styles, using oil or acrylic in a variety of techniques and individual expression, ranging from detailed realism to more impressionistic methods. The artists regularly exhibit and sell their work, having inspired devoted collectors for years. A common thread is the expression of the love and appreciation of nature in their work.
In addition to forming lasting friendships, Tuesday Painters is a group that has grown to respect each other and the intense work that goes into creating beautiful and enduring art.

A reception for the Tuesday Painters will be held in our tasting room on Sunday June 8 from 1 to 4 pm. Many of the artists contributing to the exhibit will be on hand to chat about their paintings, goals, techniques and methods. We are looking forward to meeting visitors, greeting old and new friends, and enjoying the lovely surroundings of the vineyards.
Y’all come!
