Join us in the gallery on Sunday, March 3rd from 2-5pm. Enjoy special refreshments, meet our artists and enjoy live music by violinist, Shirley Lebo! Art in Bloom Gallery is pleased to present Cary artist and painter, Constance Pappalardo and to continue our collaboration with the estate of master ceramicist, Traudi Thornton (1940-2023).
Art in Bloom Gallery is pleased to present Cary artist and painter, Constance Pappalardo. Her show “Two Minds, One Artist” will present her black and white and color works in this exciting show! Constance’s contemporary abstract watercolors evoke feelings of hope and peace, in addition to beauty. Her black and white works are inspired by music where her paintings in color are about light and imagination. Constance’s color work is heavily influenced by nature and the magic of the ever-changing landscape.
Traudi continues her unique presence at Art in Bloom Gallery, where she participated in exhibits and sales beginning in 2015. The gallery is pleased to present “Pottery, Pantry & ‘Seconds Sale’” featuring unique works of pottery by the artist along with a selection of “Seconds”. A second in pottery means that the work has slight imperfections such as flaws or pitting on the glazed surface, blemishes, stress cracks or glaze drips. For Traudi, most of these pieces ended up in her pantry where she used them daily. Art in Bloom Gallery is honored to be able to release this special selection of her work to honor her memory.
Gallery events are always free and open to the public. On view along with these exhibits, Art in Bloom Gallery showcases a plethora of fine art by over 30 local artists. The gallery is open Monday–Saturday 10am–7pm and Sunday 12-6pm and is now located in Mayfaire Town Center at 6866 Main Street in Wilmington, NC.
