Art Exhibit – Studio Duende glows with Late Summer Light on September 8, 2007
The late summer light seems to have more depth and color

than at any other time of the year. It triggers us to reflect

on what has been and what is yet to come. This enchanting

light magically brings us insight into our past and fills

us with yearning to grasp the future with more awareness.
Studio Duende is pleased to present Late Summer Light, an exhibition of photographs and paintings by three artists, each with their own philosophy on inner illumination. In this exhibition, all three artists use the imagery of the ancient landscape and architecture of the Southwest to capture the late summer light that illuminates the magic within.
Guest photographer Cheryl MacLennan uses natural light to reveal the essential qualities of her subjects by highlighting details of the natural beauty. Her photographs document a sense of place, giving the viewer, if only for a moment, the opportunity to step into another world.
With his camera, Guy Giersch produces experiences that temper what one sees, allowing the observer to experience a visual language of beauty and imagination.
The intuitive paintings by Pernie Fallon are rich with color, expressing an endless

exploration of beauty and nature.
Studio Duende embraces the vivaciousness of Second Saturday celebrations in downtown McKinney where art galleries and other downtown businesses extend their normal business hours into the evening to celebrate the arts and community with live entertainment, spirits, and food. Catch the glow of summer’s late light on Saturday, September 8 from 7 – 10 p.m. at Studio Duende
