The two-day fall show was a delight and a pleasure. The house was pleasantly full most of the time, many just coming to look and to visit. Some found things to purchase. We enjoyed it either way.
Here’s an overview of what left the house with happy art lovers. Some were collectors previously, thus, the “again” in their caption; most were new. All now have something they will be enjoying for a long time. A few pieces got away without photographing so they’re not shown here.
Glass Table, renamed Relaxed and Elegant, oil, with congratulations to Laura Pederson. (As with all, click to enlarge, maybe twice.)
Piece of the Moon, monotype, with congratulations to Marcia McPhate.
Golden Graze, oil, with congratulations to John and Heather Beall.
Mindful Meddling, monotype, with congratulations to Louise and Dennis Delaney.
A Moment’s Distraction, oil, with congratulations to Julie and Chuck Ranson.
Chaotic Clarity, monotype, also to Julie and Chuck Ranson.
Oranges and Lemons, oil on unstretched canvas, with congratulations to Charlotte Ranson.
Bright Outlook, oil, with congratulations (again) to Pat MacDonald, who also purchased a beautiful red rose still life, unphotographed.
Mustering Meaning, monotype, with congratulations to Donna Sommer who, with husband Bob, purchased three.
Field of Vision, monotype, to Donna Sommer.
Traveler’s Tales, monotype, a third to Donna Sommer.
Mother’s Lap, oil on unstretched canvas, to Cricket Jamet, long a collector.
Piering Through, oil, congratulations to Dee and Anna Abell.
Follow Me, print on canvas, also to Dee and Anna Abell.
Flamenco Pause, oil, congratulations to Jennifer and Norman Kyle, who first saw it at Starbucks and purchased it a week before the show.
Plains King, oil over acrylic, also to Jennifer and Norman Kyle.
Edwardian Beach, Looking Left, oil, congratulations to Pat Geretti. (A match is still available, “looking right.”)
Shell Seeker, print on canvas, also to Pat Geretti.
Nepali on Cherry Wood, oil, congratulations to Karen Murphy.
Flamenco Fiesta, oil, also to Karen Murphy.
Premise and Proof, monotype, congratulations again to Susie and Carl Hess.
Gossamer Gleanings, monotype, also to Susie and Carl Hess.
Four Still Lifes on Cherry Wood, oil, to Susie and Carl Hess, for their two daughters, away at college.
Red Poppies, acrylic on paper, with congratulations to Janice Ehlers.
Sunflower Radiance, oil, congratulations again to Judith and Gary Bowman of Mt. Pleasant, Texas, who for the second year took the risk of purchasing having only seen the works online. They love them all.
Also congratulations to Nancy Jenkins who purchased five small works as well as Toni Nelson and young Emma each of whom bought one, but none photographed.
The next studio show will be in late spring. In the meantime, the house continues to function as a gallery, entertaining guests whenever they come. A phone call or a text is appreciated first (949-290-8643). And everything’s always available online, viewable on the websites. If you find anything of interest, just call or email and we can take it from there (moore@hyattmoore.com).
Most of all, we’re grateful for your friendship. More important than art.

Hyatt,
The works purchased are all so beautiful!! The giftedness of you and Anne has truly beautified so many homes. The painting called A Moment’s Distraction is something extra special. A Mother’s lap feels personal to me as a mother. Anne’s Field of Vision, Chaotic Clarity, and Mustering Meaning speak- the shapes are alive and embody a great deal of the human condition. Nepali’s Turban has something similar in it to A Moment’s Distraction. The way you use the colors in these seems unique and is so attractive to my eye. And of course I am partial to Shell Seeker. I admire it hanging in my living room every day. May all who have one of your works know how blessed they are! I know I am!
Much love to you both! Kerry

All this work is so beautiful! Congratulations on a successful show. Always a pleasure to see more work by such a talented couple. Some of these were new to me. Really love “Shell Seeker.” Wish I’d seen that first!

Thanks, Toni. It was great having you with us. And congrats on yours. Actually, “Shell Seeker” is a print (the original owned by Kerry Hasenbalg of Danville, Pennsylvania, http://www.hyattmoore.com/art/Shell-Seeker-en-situ388.jpg). If you like, you can custom order one from me, on canvas, any size. (Actually, this is true with any of my paintings.) Let me know.

Great! I’m most impressed by the variety in yours and Ann’s work….. Interesting to note how many people lean to certain art….a great reminder of how unique each of us is…… I’m always struck with the ability you have to capture facial expressions…..so, of course, your picture of Jesus and the Nepali on Cherry Wood were outstanding to me…. I love the way you know how Jesus looks AT us……so refreshing to see, after so many depict Him as a “far off,” frowning, cold almost non-compassionate, a “religious” Judge.
Prayed for the weekend to be a huge blessing and success…..so I really could have just said “thank you” and quit…..but some people have to say it all!! :). (Mark and whole family just left after a great Thanksgiving together…….granddaughter Taylor has become a free lance artist…..meeting you while she was still a teenager had an impact on her.)

I’m so grateful that Karen invited me to your open house. Every room held beautiful treasures. The warmth and your graciousness wrapped around me upon entering. The height of my happiness to have “Shell Seeker” and “Edwardian Beach” is beyond words. Thank you for making it possible. I’m truly blessed.
