Silicon Valley Open Studios Events

Nance Wheeler will be showing new works at 2 Silicon Valley Open Studios Events.  Nance's lastest landscapes and seascapes feature some highly textural effects and glorious colors.

On May 2nd-3rd from 11am-5pm, Nance will be at 475 Knoll Drive in Los Altos, CA.

On May 9th-10th from 11am-5pm, Nance will be at 750 Jordan Ave in Los Altos, CA.

Come and enjoy the open house atmosphere with Nance and 6 more artists.  There will be talk about art and demonstrations by some of the artists.

Open Studios Preview Show at Intel

Nance Wheeler is currently participating in the Silicon Valley Open Studios Preview Show at Intel Corporation's Santa Clara site.  This painting called "Silver Sea" is 16X20 inches.  The exploration of texture and the sculptural qualites in a 2-dimensional media bring an underlying technical theme to the painting.  This is in contrast to the simple visual exploration of space which purposefully invites the viewer to relax and be transported.

Art Crossroads

At the recent Open Studios even I was honored to be interviewed by Risk Taking Coach and New Market Strategist Dee McCrorey.  She was there to talk about changing careers for her Road to Innovation vlog.  I have been transitioning from a corporate position to a working artist.  If I was working in Da Vinci's time, that might mean I had joined a studio or was supported by a patron.  These days, being a working artist means I have become a solo entrepeneur. 

In the interview we discuss how small changes have added up to a major transition in my career.  Please take a look at the video interview on Dee's Road to Innovation website.   http://roadtoinnovation.tv

Nance Wheeler at Silicon Valley Open Studios

Come see Nance at 750 Jordan Ave, Los Altos, CA May 10-11th.  Nance will be showing her artwork from 11AM to 5PM along with 4 other artists as part of the Silicon Valley Open Studios event.  This is an opportunity to see artists and talk about art. 

Have you ever wondered how an artist plans out a painting?  Do you want to know where the idea for the painting comes from?  Would you like to know what the artist was thinking about during the creation of the artwork?

All this and more, you can find out at Open Studios with Nance on Saturday and Sunday.

Lanscapes and Seascapes--Upcoming Shows

I'm honored to be showing at Downey Savings Bank in Mountain View from March 4th through April 26th.  This show will feature scenes from the Monterey coast and San Francisco's Lincoln Park. 

Downey Savings is located at 1570 Grant Road, Mountain View, CA.  Although there will not be a reception for this location, I hope you will get a chance to come in and view the pictures.

In May I will be participating in Silicon Valley Open Studios during the Weekend of May 10-11.  Come and see me!  I love to chat about art.

Thoughts on PAL Portfolio Show

The Friday night opening of the Pacific Art League's Portfolio Show was exciting.  That show was on all December and it was a great opportunity to meet collectors and artists from the community.  Personally, I recommend regular viewing of PAL's Gallery.  With monthly shows there is always something interesting to see.  The Gallery is at the corner of Forest and Ramona in Palo Alto, CA.  I submit to the monthly shows a couple times a year, so you might see me there--in person or in spirit with a piece of art.

Portfolio Show

You are invited to attend the Gallery Reception for the opening of the Annual Member Portfolio Show and Sale at the Pacific Art League.  I will be showing my art photography.  These are seasonal photos that celebrate the holidays.

The opening reception is Friday December 7th, 2007 from 6-9pm.  I will be on hand to talk about my artwork.  Please come and chat.  I love to talk about the art and about the process of making it, so bring your curiosity.

The show will be exhibiting at the Pacific Art League all through the month of December.  The general Gallery hours are Monday-Friday 9-5 and Saturday from 10-4.  PAL is located at 668 Ramona St in Palo Alto, CA.
