Revised Perspectives
Please stop by this Friday for the closing reception for Toby Penney's solo show, Revised Perspectives. Toby will be on-hand to answer questions. Her work is absolutely amazing! She is a native Chattanoogan who currently lives in middle Tennessee. Toby's work is shown internationally and nationally at well known contemporary galleries. I'm so happy to have her in her hometown!

New works from Lisa Staggs
The color of the birch trees is wonderful (shows so much better in real life). The frame is this beautiful wood frame.
This little water piece has great lighting. Lisa said this might be her favorite piece ever!
