Leoma Lovegrove's Everyday Art Adventure : Davis Art Center releases press release for Palettes retrospective

Here’s the press release that the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center has released about Palettes: Past Present and Pursuits, the retrospective of my work that opens January 6:

This January, the Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center brings the eclectic work of Leoma Lovegrove to downtown Fort Myers. Leoma Lovegrove’s art is her life’s passion. For the first time, Lovegrove has assembled a lifetime of work for her show, “Retrospective; Palettes: Past Present and Pursuits.” Experience this exhibit beginning on Friday, January, 6, 2017 during Art Walk. Entertainment in the Grand Atrium will be hosted by DJ Ceron from 6 – 10 p.m. The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center is located at 2301 First St. in the historic downtown Fort Myers River District.

Everyday Lovegrove paints and creates using found items from the environment around her. She has built driftwood “Beach Boys” along Lake Superior, painted on flat stones from the shores of Saint-Malo, France, and painted scenes along the Seine River aboard Monet’s floating studio. In addition, Leoma created a designer line of clothing with her art images that are sold in all the Bealls Florida Department stores.

Leoma Lovegrove is an impressionist-expressionist painter known worldwide for her vivid, colorful paintings. Leoma is a graduate of Florida's prestigious Ringling School of Art. She makes her home and international headquarters on Matlacha Island and greets thousands of visitors every year at Lovegrove Gallery & Gardens. This is where Leoma is inspired to paint with endless creativity. She loves Matlacha Island and as the President of the Matlacha Island Chamber of Commerce, she promotes tourism to the Sunshine state. In the United States, her works are represented in numerous galleries. Most recently, Bealls Florida Department Stores is featuring her as their Florida artist under the designer label Leoma Lovegrove complete with her trademark eye glasses.
