“Clouds Over Boise River” by Rena Vandewater

The holidays are beautiful in McCall. Trees are lit, decorations go up, but Mother Nature does the best decorating. On December 1, we welcome guest artist painter Rena Vandewater and feature glass artist Laura Johnson and our newest member, jeweler Michele Applebee. Rena’s famously colorful oil and acrylic paintings not only provide just the antidote for cabin fever but will delight art collectors. Featured member, Laura Johnson, also a master of color, inspires us with new fused glass work on her favorite subject, the natural landscape. You’ll want to take in the elegance of Michelle Applebee’s jewelry, too, the perfect gift for someone you love—or for yourself.

Meet the artists and view the art by over twenty member artists at our First Saturday reception, December 1, 4-8 p.m., with music by Mike Rutledge, wine by Bistro 45 and appetizers.

Gallery Fifty-Five is a nonprofit artist cooperative.
