Attention jewelry lovers! Now that the kids are back in school and you (hopefully) have a bit more free time, check out "For the Love of Gems", written by our own Pat Buchanan! It showcases Pat's work with more than one hundred beautifully photographed examples. It is full of folklore associated with gemstones... and for beginning jewelers, includes a list of trusted vendors, free video tutorials and instructions for making a simple bracelet or necklace. Here are some sample pages from the book. "For the Love of Gems" is available for purchase at the gallery. . #carygalleryofartists #thingstodoinCary #ncartist #jewelrybook #gemstonejewelry #handmadejewelry #PatriciaBuchananjewelry

Labradorite & Moonstone Necklace
This gorgeous labradorite and moonstone pendant from Teri Pohlmeier (Cinnabar Designs) catches your eye from across the room! The labradorite is a different stone with each new angle of light. Encased in Teri's wire wrapped setting, it will always spark interest!

"Snowy Day" augmented reality painting by Jane Steelman
Our 2D Featured exhibit takes you on flights of fancy, as Jane Steelman Art's oil + cold wax paintings come to life with help of Augmented Reality! 😲 How does that work? Well, when you point your phone at a piece using the free phone app Artivive, the painting will appear to come to life with cool motion and sound effects! Here's an example, using Jane's painting "Snowy Day". There's no duck or falling snow in the actual painting... that's a digital overlay created by Jane... that goes into motion when you look at the painting through the app. Come check 'em all out! The show runs to June 27th. . #carygalleryofartists #thingstodoinCary #ncartists #supportlocalart #artexhibit #oilandcoldwax #janesteelman

"Over the Falls" Augmented Reality painting
Jane Steelman Art is our next 2-D Featured Artist. The paintings in her exhibit "Making Art Come Alive" will be enhanced with Augmented Reality! 😲 What does this mean? Well, when you point your phone at a piece using the free phone app Artivive, the painting will appear to come to life with cool motion and sound effects! Here's an example, using Jane's painting "Over the Falls". Intrigued? Join us this Friday from 6 - 8 pm and try it for yourself! Jane's paintings for this show are oil and cold wax. Cold Wax is an oil painting medium which is a buttery soft paste made of beeswax mixed with a small amount of solvent and resin. The cold wax paste is mixed with the oil paint on the palette and adds body, transparency and depth to the oil paint. . #carygalleryofartists #thingstodoinCary #ncartists #supportlocalart #openingreception #artexhibit #oilandcoldwax #janesteelman

Ann Howe Interview Trailer
Join Chip Freund Photography this week for a very special conversation with Cary Gallery of Artists founding memebr, Ann Howe. Ann is an oil and encaustic artist who's works often feature water and sky. One of the things that makes Ann unique is that she is still producing exceptional work at 98 years of age! We can only dream of being so vital and creatative as a nonagenarian. Make sure to stop by Cary Gallery of Artists between February 24 and March 28 to see Ann's exhibition, "Sea & Sky".
