Next NAAA General Meeting

The next General meeting of the NAAA will be held at Gallery One on Wednesday December 10, 2008 at 8:00pm.

The meeting will be followed by an NAAA Christmas Party! .

The Featured Artist is "Christine Ryan"

Gallery One is featuring Christne Ryan as the Featured Artist at Gallery One for the months of November and December. Opening Reception will be held from 2-5pm on Nov. 29th at Gallery One.
Christine A. Ryan, a New England native, has been photographing quintessential New England for the last twenty four years. In the Spring of 2004, while visiting a childhood friend, Christine discovered her love of painting. A photograph can capture the image of a moment but not the feeling, Christine conveys that feeling on canvas.

Studying under the tutelage of Sally Grigas, Christine has developed a passion for oil paint but is always experimenting with new mediums. Not to be placed in a box as an artist, Christine paints whatever inspires her. Recent trips to Paris and Niagara Falls have generated a wonderful new array of material for Christine to work with.

In 2008 Christine took her hobby and love of painting to the next level. She joined the Nashua Area Artist Association, participated in many local shows including the Greeley Park 55th Annual Art Show were she won 3rd place in oils for her painting of the Louvre, Paris France. She will also be the featured artist of the month at Gallery One in Nashua, NH for the month of November and December. Original oil paintings, quality giclee prints and note cards will be available. If interested please visit Christines web site or stop by Gallery One www.christinearyan.com
