Love Birds is a two person exhibition of paintings by engaged couple, Chuck Beard of Bowling Green, KY & Emily Harper of Nashville, TN. They will show watercolor, oil, batik, & collaborative pieces. The couple plan on marrying in September of this year.
Author Chuck Beard celebrates the release of his first novel at Memphis Marsha's with a combination book signing and art show Friday, June 5, 5-8 p.m. in conjunction with the downtown Bowling Green Gallery Hop. Beard, who has written for several
publications including Number Inc. and Nashville Arts Magazine, wrote Adventures Inside a Bright-Eyed Sky while studying creative writing at the University of Edinburgh. Artwork for the book's cover was created by Bowling Green artist and Love
Birds curator, Andee Rudloff. Rudloff introduced Beard and Harper when she assembled her team of artists to work on an installation for the Cheekwood Botanical Gardens in 2008. All proceeds from the book sales will benefit the non-profit
organization founded by Beard, Adventures Inside a Campus for a Cure, an organization devoted to research and finding a cure for cancer.
Harper is an emerging artist and co-owner of magpie etc., in Nashville, Tenn. With a number successful shows under her belt, including the Martin Center Frist Gallery of the Nashville Ballet, she attributes much of her artistic inspiration to her talented mother and co-collaborators.
The exhibition continues at Memphis Marsha's on regular gallery days, Thursdays-Saturdays, 10-4 CT, or by appointment for other days & times. The exhibition & reception are free, & open to the public.
