The Talented Faye Hall

Saturday morning was a real treat for me! I had the priviledge of photographing artist Faye Hall in her studio! I’ve admired Faye’s painting abilities for a while now. I think we are kindred spirits in more than a couple of ways but foremost-We both LOVE  colour in our  images! She put me so at ease right away with her cutoff painting shorts-her “whitty” T-shirt and she totally surprised me when she picked up her artist palette-a lid from Costco packaging! So down to earth! Faye has been a busy lady preparing for her up coming show on Friday, September 16th at 6:30p.m.. All art lovers are welcome that evening-address of the opening is 657 Bonner.  I’m looking forward to the event which will include Special Guest, Singer/writer/storyteller Steve Bell!  Faye will display a number of paintings completed/inspired from photos taken by Steve during his travels to India and Ethiopia. I spent a fun filled hour with her checking out the gallery-AMAZING- and then photographing her at work in the studio as well as completing some more formal portraits of her . Check out her website at www.fayehall.com to see some of  her beautiful inspired works of art!
