On Saturday, March 10, The Frame Factory in Vienna hosted an opening reception for the art show, The Landscapes of Ten Artists. Around 50 people of all ages gathered in the shop to see the work of Thomas Xenakis, Sheila Blake, Marsha Gallo, Gary Goldberg, Linda Greigg, Barbara Johnson, Robert McBride, Be Sargent, Susan Yanero, and Ellen Zelano. Visual artist, Thomas Xenakis, selected the artists for the show and made sure that each artist represented a unique style of work and also a unique type of landscape. The works vary from beach scapes to woods, and from traditional oil paintings to marker on wood. The show runs through April 28 and all the works of art are available for purchase. For more information on the show and to see examples of the artists’ work, you can visit The Frame Factory website at http://www.theframefactory1.com.
