Artist Donna Brown's Work at Door Peninsula Winery Gallery

“DONNA BROWN: IN HARMONY” TO BE ON DISPLAY AT THE GALLERY

STURGEON BAY – Donna Brown: In Harmony opens the 2014 season at the Gallery at Door Peninsula Winery with a reception Thursday, May 22 from 4:30 - 6:30 p.m. Music will be provided by Kalen Keir on saxophone. The collection will feature many works centered on her love for capturing nature and expressing it by using vibrant colors.

A Door County resident for over 20 years, Brown operates her own studio and gallery – the White Barn Gallery, in Baileys Harbor.

Brown has won awards in many juried shows and can be found in various public collections, including the Miller Art Museum, Door County Memorial Hospital, Marshfield Clinic, Wausau Public Library, Appleton VA Hospital and Northwest Mutual Insurance. For many years, she actively exhibited her work in national and regional art shows and therefore has many fans in distant locations.

The accomplished watercolorist divides her time between Mexico and the U.S. and loves observing the beauty and boundlessness of nature in both locales. She loves seeing her summer birds on their winter vacations in the south and has begun incorporating them into her imagery.

“The balance of nature is delicate,” Brown said. “It is my deepest hope that as you look at my work, you will consider your connection with the birds, butterflies or bees that you may find scattered in these compositions and seek ways to assure their continued presence and well-being while enjoying the imagery.

“These are my muses … flying in and out of my vision but leaving traces of their paths for me to wander and wonder and enjoy.”

Brown is always looking for new approaches ever more true to her inner vision. This passion has led her to explore printmaking as well as extensive experimentation with mixed materials, including encaustics. Aficionados and collectors appreciate Brown’s artistic integrity, lured by the certainty she has the courage to explore different media, new applications and fresh approaches.

ABOUT THE GALLERY AT DOOR PENINSULA WINERY: The Gallery is a beautiful, dedicated space connecting Door Peninsula Winery, Door County Distillery and Bistro 42. Seasonal shows ensure that each visit will be unique offering works from local Door County artists.

Honey Dewdrops to Perform at Last White Gull Concert of the Season

The Honey Dewdrops, an award winning, nationally touring husband and wife folk duet, will be featured Wednesday, April 6, at the White Gull Inn. Tickets for the 8 PM concert, the seventh and final concert of the season at the Fish Creek inn, are $15. The Dewdrops, Laura Wortman and Kagey Parrish, perform original songs focusing on vocal harmonies and tight instrumentation. Influenced by traditional Appalachian music as well as contemporary singer-songwriters, the Dewdrops blend old styles with new and accompanying themselves on guitar, banjo and mandolin.

If the Sun Will Shine, their debut record, was released in 2009 to critical acclaim and was #2 for two consecutive months on Folk DJ Radio in 2010. The album is a collection of songs written over the past two years, capturing “something haunting, melancholic and all-together charming, according to Jeff Royer of Fly Magazine. Their second album, These Old Roots, is also a tribute to the way music was recorded before overdubs and tracking. It was the #1 rated album on the Folk DJ Charts for October and November 2010. The Dewdrops gained national recognition with award winning performances of NPR’s A Prairie Home Companion in 2008 and were finalists in Mountain Stage’s New Song Contest in 2009.

An optional pre-concert fixed price dinner will served at 6 PM. The menu consists of Panko Crusted Chicken with Fettuccine, charred tomatoes and roast garlic cream; herbed parmesan Focaccia, spinach salad with gorgonzola, seasoned croutons and warmed cider bacon vinaigrette. Key lime cheesecake will be served for dessert.

Tickets for the concert, reservations for the dinner and information can be obtained by calling the White Gull Inn at 920-868-3517.
