Most weeks, our online art gallery is filled with paintings and photos from around the world.
This week, we’ve got several from our backyard. Compo Beach, downtown and Blau House & Gardens are all represented.
We’ve also got needlework and ceramics — two mediums we don’t see much of here.
Everyone is invited to contribute. Age, level of experience, subject matter — there are no restrictions.
All genres are encouraged. Watercolors, oils, charcoal, pen-and-ink, acrylics, lithographs, collages, macramé, jewelry, sculpture, decoupage and (yes) needlepoint — whatever you’ve got, email it to 06880blog@gmail.com. Share your work with the world! (PS: Please include the medium you’re working in — art lovers want to know.)

Clayton Liotta’s work in pencil is astounding.
This sequence of artworks represents what I mean when I say that 06880 is worth my donation for the artwork alone. Simply amazing.
I always like to see the weekly gallery. And this week, Clayton Liotta’s “Summertime” work in pencil is extraordinary! There are so many stories behind the baby sweater, Now if we could only see a photo of the sweetie wearing it. And the rest of the submissions are a pleasure to see and think about. Thanks, Dan.
