Lets go to... NEW HOPE, PA

New Hope Pennsylvania is what i would consider a more local tourist attraction. There are a lot of people that go there to see the sites, shop, and go to the local galleries. there a lot of local artists in the area, artists that make pottery sculptures, blown glass, and much more. The majority of the artwork in this area is meant to be sold, and a lot of the paintings are of landscapes of the area. It was difficult finding galleries that weren't all paintings of the country side of New Hope and Lambertville, but i did my research and found one gallery that could be something more than just local art. It was Image Makers Gallery of the Stars. Unfortunately the gallery was closed because the owner was on vacation. YAY!.. at this point the trip had become a quest. Well i crossed the bridge over to Lambertville, which i call New Hope Part 2, to find a few other galleries i had looked up the night before. i didn't find them. but i did find 2 galleries that were quite nice. I found des Champs Gallery that was your typical local gallery selling paintings of the country side. but in the upstairs room there were some scultptures by Lubomir Tomaszewski. The sculptures were quite pleasent, something i wouldn't mind having in my home, but nothing that really gathers meaning or sends a message. The sculptures were made of stone and steel. and resembled a ballerina, a wolf, and a gazell.
The Next Gallery i found was Artists' Gallery on Coryell street. This gallery i couldnt find on a web site but they had wonderfull abtract peices by artists named Florence Moonan and Carol Sanzalone. The exhibition is called INOVATIONS. The lady working there told use that the work was out up that day and will be taken down November 1st. The drwaings down by Moonan were whirls and swirls of charcoal as though she took a photo of tazmainian devil in mid spin. Sanalone did water color peices of plants and abstract landscapes using color that was very vibrant and fun.
