More than thirty artists in Windsor Terrace and Park Slope will be opening their homes and studios and inviting the public in to have a look.
This collective of visual artists has been opening their doors annually and this tour has become a great neighborhood tradition. The tour brings people from all over the metropolitan area to discover the artists’ skill and artwork.
This year’s open studio tour will take place on Saturday, November 18th, from noon until 5:00 p.m., and Sunday, November 19th, also from noon until 5:00 p.m.
Artists on this year’s tour include Brooklyn cityscape painters, photographers, sculptors, and printmakers.
The image shown is by Janie Samuels . The newest development in her work are photographic gel transfer and oil on panel works. These grew out of her interest in manipulating both drawings and photographs on the computer and reworking them by hand in pastel or oils. The subject is landscapes both urban and rural, an intimate portrait from every day life. Her studio is located at 614 Seventh Ave at 22nd St.
The tour will also feature creative ceramics artists who make earthenware limited edition, one-of-a-kind, functional pots and large sculptural vessels. Caryn Kreutzer is currently creating cups and impressive oval platters as well as beautiful bowls.
