SEPTEMBER 2ND FRIDAY SHOW: SEPTEMBER 14, 2012, 5 - 8 pm:
We are so happy at the return of a real RQ favorite: Melanie Heacock! Earlier this year Melanie had DB (deep brain) surgery. It was a success and she is now better than ever and happily painting up a storm to bring for her RQ show.

And a new artist to the RQ: Don Fogle.
And a new artist to the RQ: Don Fogle.
Don was born in Hacksneck, VA, we don't know when and are well-bred enough not to ask, and he has just returned from many years on the West Coast. Don's work is truly like no other: you will have to come and let him explain it to you!
And if Melanie, Tom and Don are not enough we are also celebrating our
5th Anniversary!

RQ BEHIND THE SCENES:
I was in Baltimore so I called RQ and checked-in with Brenda. Brenda told me how the day was going and that we had received a box of pears and she put them in the fridge.
Later in the day I got an email from our new artist, Carol Keene. She asked if her box had arrived. I called Brenda back and asked her to check at the Post Office: no box, so emailed Carol nope.
Next morning woke to Carol's email that she had a copy of a receipt signed by Clark. I started to laugh.
Emailed Carol: she started to laugh.
Emailed Brenda: she responded the paintings are fresh.
and safe in the fridge!
