Emily Myerow: My Personality Portrait
Graciela, Miguel & I visited the www.SaxonvilleStudios.com in Framingham, MA yesterday. The artists have an open exhibition this weekend, and of course we walked and talked with many of them. Cousin Emily (Goldfield side) is a professional artist and I love her intuitive art and presentation of perspective. She captures individual nuance and insight; I enjoy art with meaning. Please visit her studio today. Directions are at the Saxonville Studio website.
