Ron Chilston of Jerome Photos will debut "Dream Scenes Stream
Jerome" during the February 4th Art Walk.
Jerome continues
its love affair with ART on February 4th with the First Saturday ART WALK.
Just in time for Valentine's Day, the 26 galleries and studios of Jerome
will be brimming over with visual delights. There will be plenty of
chocolate, music and good conversation at this vibrant event. Meet the
artists that night and mingle with other art lovers who are drawn to this
charming mountain town. Make a night of it with dinner at one of the
town's delicious restaurants. Maybe even spend the night at one of the
delightful B&B's or hotels. The party starts at 5:00PM. There is
plenty of parking and a shuttle is available to transport visitors to
galleries and studios. The Jerome Art Walk is an event that has become a
great Northern Arizona tradition on the First Saturday of each
month.
Come see some of Northern Arizona's iconic locations
from Grand Canyon, Sedona, Monument Valley and more. Purple Sky Photography in The
Old Jerome High School will be celebrating all of them through
Kim Hoshal's photography. Kim has also released her latest DVD, "Four
Seasons" featuring landscape photographs through the seasons and music by
William Hoshal.
Jerome
Photos is
pleased to announce that they have just begun installing new photographs
printed on aluminum. The metal prints are created by infusing dyes
directly into specially coated aluminum sheets. The high
gloss-coating take on an almost magical luminescence you must see to
believe! Located in downstairs in the Bitter Creek Winery/Jerome Gallery
Building, stop for a wine tasting before feasting your eyes on this
spectacular work.
Casa
Latina will
feature local author Roberta Rabago whose book "Rich Town Poor Town...
Ghosts of Copper's Past". Stop by for an autographed copy. Check

The big question at
the Lincoln
Gallery this month is
where in the hell is the muse for digitally manipulated photography? There
are muses for epic poetry, history, love poetry, sonnets & elegiac
poetry, tragedy, hymns, dance, comedy and even astronomy but no muse for
digitally manipulated photography! What's up with that? We know our muse
is out there somewhere but Wikipedia can't find her, Google can't find her
and phone calls to Mt. Olympus say " Press one for the muse of
elegiac poetry, press two for the muse of dance press nine and wait
forever for the gods of Olympus to speak to you!"
Geometry is
all around us, and as Jerome artist James Rome sees it, it's the
foundation of everything we're built on, evident in symbolism both sacred
and secular. His retrospective showing at the Jerome Artists Cooperative
Gallery, "A Creative Evolution" through March 1st, showcases four
decades of evolving art, ranging from painting to lithography to Rome's
ongoing "Sticks and Strings" sculptures, and how each series and style
transitioned into the next. "I kept a few pieces around," the
artist explains, "Within a lot of the work I'll be showing, there are
things I struggled with. There's personal emotional connection."
Please join Pura Vida Gallery for the February 4th Art Walk as
