Visited Art ‘til Dark this afternoon. It is a regular outdoor art showing sponsored by Winder Binder Gallery. Some talented folks. Sculpture, painting, glass blowing, handicrafts. The originality of these artists always amazes me.
Today I met Charles McFarland, a local sculptor. He has worked in steel for over 2 decades, but had only recently turned his skills into creating art. His pieces are both large and small. He works both freelance and by commission. His customers include many corporations in Chattanooga, but also individuals.

Here are two of the larger pieces by Charles McFarland being displayed at the Art ‘til Dark show. |
Today I also met Gypsy Hundley, a painter from North Carolina. As we talked, I mentioned that last week at the Who-Fest I met another artist whose work used the bright colors and imaginative drawing. Gypsy said, "Yes, my sister, Kim."
Two very talented ladies. With striking use of beautiful colors.

Gypsy's sister, Kim, was here today also, but I missed her. From her booth at Art ‘til Dark. |
David Smotherman runs Winder Binder Gallery on Frazier Avenue, where the regular Art ‘til Dark shows are held. He also sponsored the Who-Fest last weekend.
Give him a visit and see these great and inspired pieces. The next show is June 6, at the start of Riverbend.
