“Hey, You Looking at Me?”

Ann Hayden has titled her second show with us in tribute to the curiosity she observes in the birds she watches near her home on the Eastern Shore of Virgina. While her first show “Flyby” caught birds in flight, this show captures their inquisitive nature. Once again she focuses on the sculptural quality of birds but this time her subjects seem to be posing for the observer. It is clear Ann finds the shapes fun to paint offering great poses and humor with titles contributed by her friend Phyllis Ward.

“Images of Summer Light”

Each summer Bishop’s Stock features artists who do not regularly show throughout the year. Many of these talented artists have connected with us through Paint Snow Hill, our abstract show or just during their stays on the Eastern Shore. In July we are featuring paintings by Jan Crooker. Those who have seen her paintings during Paint Snow Hill will recognize her love of light and color. She is calling her show “Images of Summer Light” with all of the paintings reflecting light we experience during long, lazy summer days.
