The weather was beautiful this weekend! On Saturday I did some gallery sitting for the Del Ray Artisans. The exhibition will be up until April 26th. Here are some pictures from the day, including some shots of my artwork on the walls.
It was such a beautiful day!
The lighting in the gallery was wonderful.
I decided to get a couple of pictures of my work.
This one is done for now. I’m planning to return to all of these “possible solo exhibition pieces” later on to refine the ones I like best. Some time away from a composition always does some bit of good.
Anyway, there’s more to come soon.
And I hope everyone is doing well!
Three of my collages, “Green Coffee Cup,” “The Masonic Temple,” and “Blue Barack Obama”, are currently on display in the Del Ray Artisan’s Colasanto Center in Alexandria, Virginia. The exhibition runs from March 27th till April 26th, 2009 (gallery info).
I went to pick up my collage from the Art League today and took a couple of pictures of the piece in the gallery.
And I’m done! I’ve started two other 24″x18″ collages – I’ll post the other progress pictures soon.

Megan Coyle’s “Smirk” and “Figure Seated by the Counter” collages were on display in Blueberry Gallery. Blueberry Gallery is a new Art Gallery that recently moved next door to St. Elmo’s coffee shop in the Del Ray area of Alexandria, Virginia.
The exhibition had a closing reception on May 7th. On the closing night of the exhibition, the gallery owner held a rock, paper, scissors tournament where an iphone was given away to a winner.
The exhibition was initially planned to end on May 7th, however the gallery owner extended the exhibition until June 6th.
The other day I created a collage of the Washington Monument – I’m planning to add this to my Etsy shop in the next week or so. It’s my first attempt at doing the DC series, and I know that the more I practice the same subjects, the more I can improve. So here’s my first try.

Megan Coyle’s collages, “Coffee in the Morning,” “Masonic Temple,” and “Blue Barack Obama,” were on display in the Del Ray Artisans’ exhibition, “Celebrate the Art of Making.” The exhibition was the first All Member, All Media exhibition for the Del Ray Artisans organization.
The exhibition showcased the artwork of local Alexandria artists that worked in mediums ranging from painting to photography and from collage to sculpture.
I’m going to put this one away for a bit. I’m planning to start working on a mini-collage series of scenes of D.C. Hopefully I can get one of those started and completed by next weekend. We shall see how productive I will be.
