Hi everyone, I'm going to be doing a guided walk around my exhibition in Johnston Central Library, Thursday October 17th from 7-8pm. It's a free event and everyone is very welcome. Please share with anyone who you think might be interested :) The exhibition is kindly supported by @creativeireland @cavanartsofficer #creativeireland #cavanarts #artinireland #artisttalk #walkandtalk #artexhibitionireland #oscarwilde #ahouseofpomegranates #thefairystoriesofoscarwilde #thisiscavan #whatsoninireland #irishartsreview (at Johnston Central Library) https://www.instagram.com/p/B234x9lijhu/?igshid=1lpzx2t21drs0

I really hate to hear my voice back 🙈 but I wanted to show you just a snippet of my opening on Culture Night. My sister Lorraine is working on a video of the night that should be ready in the next few weeks. Also I've put so much work into this show over the last 8 months that I'd really like to bring the whole exhibition somewhere else (in Ireland or abroad) after it finishes in Johnston Central Library Cavan on October 26th. If you know of any venue or gallery that might be interested in showing this exhibition please message me. There are 22 paintings in total but for a bigger space I'm happy to work on more. As I said at my opening I wrote down 79 different painting ideas when I read through the stories first and every time I read them I get a new idea! All help greatly appreciated. @creativeireland @culturenight #creativeireland #culturenight2019 #artoftheday #artistsharing #artistnetworking #exhibitionopening #artistcall #artexhibitionireland #femaleartist #soloartexhibition #thefairystoriesofoscarwilde #oscarwilde https://www.instagram.com/p/B21QY5gi0s0/?igshid=1sl6r8hzzey5a

Finally the exhibition is all set up ready for your viewing and reading pleasure! I've been working on "A House Of Pomegranates" based on "The Fairy Stories of Oscar Wilde" since February this year so I'm really looking forward to people seeing the paintings in the flesh. Thanks to everyone who has encouraged me as I was showing the work online since I started, it really made a difference. 🤗 A big thank you to Johnston Central Library Cavan, @creativeireland and @cavanartsofficer You can now preview the exhibition on my website www.michellehartonart.com If you are interested in reserving a painting please feel free to message me. P.S. I love my new @print24 banner!
