Xanadu Gallery is one I visit quite often. I've pictured many large sculptures that are always in front of this gallery. You might remember Amelia Earhart and Claude Monet that I pictured in October.
On my visit last Saturday, I stepped inside to see what I could find. I was struck by the creativity of this one by Dave Newman. His works were all multi-media pieces using all kinds of found bits and pieces. This one is called Twilight Saguaro.
This second one is called Famous Saguaro. Not all of his pieces were cactus. He had other interesting mixed media pieces.
Another artist who is represented at Xanadu Gallery is Stephen Hansen. I love seeing his whimsical pieces. He always has the painter working on some famous work of art like Van Gogh's Cypresses in this example. You can see a few of his other pieces here.
There is always something fun to see at Xanadu Gallery.

I should take a class in mixed media, I love it, and have never really worked with it.
Mixed media pieces are so fun. They're like a visual scavenger hunt with all its bits and pieces. I love the saguaros, especially the first one.
Very cool!
I really like all of these, Sharon. Love the whimsy of the painter.
Love the cacti! Some very interesting found objects there.
The top and bottom ones are my favourites.
The cacti are amazing!
The art works are so fabulous
