International Success

Thanks to Susan Lehman’s international intrigues, the South Coast art enclave has gone virtual with representatives in the International Collage Exchange. Susan Lehman, Pat Snyder and Nan Forsberg-Hammons are our own home-grown, world-wide celebrity artists and Serena Rossi from Coast to Post mail art show, recently in Bandon, also made it into the mix.

There are two galleries on the site, the one on your left as you face the screen, is the permanent collection and the one on the right, as you face the screen, is the selling exhibition.

This will take you to the site and let you roam around being awed and stunned by the work or if you are in a hurry or just so intimidated that you want a quick peek and then run for the hills, the work of our own master artists can be found:

This is the work of Susan Lehman, no surprise to find her among this respected group.

And Pat Snyder rounds out the Bay Area honors.

And in case you’ve forgotten or didn’t get to see the Coast to Post event, Serena Rossi’s work is at this link.

It is clear that South Coast artists can hold their own in a world-wide competition and because of the efforts of dedicated individuals, like Susan Lehman they often get the chance.

And if that doesn’t drive you back to the studio to redouble your efforts then you need some serious Geritol rations. South Coast artists are everywhere and with a bit of effort and your own unquestioned talent you can join them.

And yes, a thank you to Susan for bringing the opportunity to our attention wouldn’t be such a bad idea either. Kudos Susan, Pat and Nan, ya done good, again.
