Open call for artists:
Front Street's 4th annual juried group show BLUE
will be part of the 2015 Arteast Studio Tour.
ArtEastdutchess.com draws art lovers from for two weekends at the peak of color. This year is it's BLUE.
Worldwide
blue is our favorite color. It evokes serenity, spirituality,
infinity. Lay on your back and look up at heaven. The 5th
chakra: the throat, voice and self-expression. Deep blues:
singing, listening. Sea and shadow. Blue symbolizes the Virgin
Mary. Krishna has blue skin. Fifty-three percent of the world's
flags have blue: the color most commonly used in corporate
identity. Miles Davis was kind of blue. What kind of blue
are you?
