Stittsville 2021 is up!

Yesterday a group of us set up the Stittsville Library show.  The theme this year is "Guess the Idiom".  The idea is that people stand back and guess the idiom before reading the captions.  Please go and have a look at the show if you can this month until November 29th.  Some of the pieces are for sale.  Here are some photos of the artwork in case you can't come and see the show.  Please click on the images to enlarge.

Below on the left is Dorothy Derose's piece called The Sound of and her idiom is "talking in circles".  On the right top is Time Flies by Janet Stanley. The dragonflies and butterflies in her piece are arranged in an around the clock pattern.   On the right below is So Sad by Margaret Dunsmore and her idiom is "lame duck".


 

In the photo below on the top left is Buried Treasure (X marks the spot) by Daphne Fry.  On the bottom left is Retta Rive's Pick up Sticks.  On the right side above is Loree Tannett's It's Raining Cats and Dogs and below it the french version by Loree called Il pleut comme vache qui pisse.


 

In the photo below on the left top is Sharon Johnson's Once in a Blue Moon.  On the left below is my piece Blue Moon.  In the middle is Anne Warburton's Paper Trails.  On the right above is A Storm in a Teacup by Jenny Suurland and on the right below is Olive Jones'  Closed Hand or Open Fist?


Below is Roberta Russell's piece Reading Faces:  Face Idioms on the left.  Roberta's idioms for the faces are "A face like a wet weekend", "do something until blue in the face", "two faced",  "written all over one's face".  Cheryl Ford's piece Hang in There is on the right.



This was all the artwork on the wall.  I will post photos of the artwork in the glass display case this afternoon.  Thanks for having a look!
