summer inspired painting

"Barbara Edlund Healy’s paintings capture the quiet (radiant) beauty of the south coast. Her paintings try to be more then a snapshot, giving the feel of a summer sail or memory of an evening walk" - from her website

We are very happy to ending our first year displaying the work of one of our neighbors. During the months of May and June, South Ender and award-winning photographer Bob Hughes is displaying a collection of "Illuminated Scenes" of New Bedford. www.bobhughesphoto.com Drop by and experience some memories.

Brain Molina, a 19 year old New Bedford resident, is now showing work he completed over the past couple years in the Cafe. Brian describes painting as a priority he never gives up on. He experiences a world of fantasy in animal forms.
