The Latest News from 

Debra Joy Groesser Fine Art

"Capturing the Spirit"

  _____  

Hello again...

And a warm welcome to all of my new subscribers. Well, we've made it to
May! I pray that you and your families are staying safe and well. I
know it's a terribly stressful time for so many and just know that my
heart is with you. As so many events have been cancelled, businesses
closed and life in general has been put on hold, I wanted to update you
on my gallery and other scheduled events that were and are planned.
After a great deal of thought and in the interest of public safety, my
gallery will remain closed for at least the next two weeks. The number
of confirmed virus cases in our county is continuing to climb so I just
don't want to put you at unnecessary risk. All of my "in person"
special events for May (Third Thursdays, Open Studio sessions,
workshops) are cancelled. The good news is that everything in the
gallery is available online on my website...keep reading for more
information about your options for shopping and delivery.

"Hope Springs Eternal"

10x8 oil (plein air) $850

Available through

"Where In The World Is" Plein Air, online on June 10, 2020

Click here <https://whereintheworldispleinair.com/>  for more

information.




Mother's Day is quickly approaching this weekend! If you are looking
for a special gift, you can shop online through my gallery website, and
everything is on sale for 10% off regular retail prices. I am offering
free contactless delivery within a 30 mile radius of Omaha, as well as
curbside pickup at the gallery.

I will reevaluate the COVID-19 situation here in two weeks and decide
on my gallery schedule at that time. I'm so looking forward to
welcoming you back to the gallery and classroom when it's safe for us
all to do so.




Thanks so much for your patience and understanding as we navigate these
uncharted waters and strive to keep us all safe.

Finally, these are extraordinary times...but I have faith that together
we will get through this and will be stronger for it. As for me, I am
taking this time to paint, reassess priorities and hopefully create
something beautiful to help lift our collective spirits...it's what we
do as artists.




Stay safe, be well and please accept my sincere heartfelt thanks for
your friendship and support...my best to you always.

-Debra Joy Groesser
