Saturday, September 10, promises to be a wonderful Gallery Stroll. This will be the final day in our punch card promotion, featuring 14 galleries of Eureka Springs. Pick up a card and let it lead you through the Art of Eureka!

"Dance Like Nobody's Watching", Flame on Copper Painting by David Rush
At Eureka Thyme we will feature David Rush, who has been creating flame on copper paintings for a number of years. This year he’s come up with a twist on his creations! He has a new series which he calls, “Dance Like Nobody’s Watching”. I must be honest in saying this is one of the most exciting series of paintings I have ever seen! He will be featured on September 10th during the 2nd Saturday Gallery Stroll in downtown Eureka Springs. Meet David and Melanie — oh, I almost forgot!! Melanie Myhre is a wonderful artist who works in traditional painting format, glass, paper, and photography, which we will be featuring this week. She is doing some innovative work which I think of as transformation photography, and we look forward to sharing this with you. David and Melanie will be with us from 1-4 p.m. and again from 6 to 9 p.m during the regularly scheduled Stroll.

A Place of Rest 9x12 Original Oil on Panel
If one were to describe Willis Miller’s work in a single word it would be serene.
Originally from Oklahoma City, Willis now resides in Fayetteville, Arkansas. He began his career as an artist over 30 years ago. Willis creates with feeling and thought as opposed to developing style. Perhaps that’s why the serenity is clearly read in his work.
On Saturday, July 9 from 1pm – 4pm we will host Willis in the Gallery. Then from 6pm – 9pm during our 2nd Saturday Gallery Stroll we’ll have an evening reception for him. This event is in conjunction with Eureka Springs’ 1st annual Fleur Delicious Weekend. Inspired by this French-themed celebration, Willis takes a unique look at the French flag in a painting called Still Held Together. For more information visit the Gallery website at www.83springstreet.com or call 479 253 8310.

We will introduce a new series of paintings by Sherry Young, a long-time resident of our town. Sherry says of her work: “I was born to be an artist. It’s been my passion for as long as I can remember! My schooling in the arts has been the School of Life. My inspiration can be from seeing a color or a pattern, and a piece of art is born from there.
Most of the time, all I need is a canvas or a blank piece of paper.
As I look at it, a picture always comes to me.”
“Quan Yin”
Original Art by Sherry Young
Sherry’s new paintings include “Om”, “Dalai Lama”, “Buddha”, and “Quan Yin”. These are all part of her “Self-Meditated” show that we will have for her on Saturday, June 11.
Join us to view these beautiful paintings and to
meet Sherry from 1-4 p.m. and again during the regularly-scheduled Gallery Stroll from 6 to 9 p.m.
