“HARRY”: Artist Alan Taback’s dog Harry was the inspiration for many of his paintings. Taback’s recent works will be on exhibit in “Inspired by Love,” at the Blawenberg Café Gallery from September 16 to November 12. An opening reception is Sunday, September 16 from 2-4 p.m.

Blawenburg artist Alan Taback will be showing his paintings from this past spring and summer at the Blawenburg Café Gallery. The opening reception for the exhibition will be held on Sunday, September 16 from 2-4 p.m. The Café is located at 391 Route 518 in Blawenburg.

The exhibit is entitled “Inspired by Love.” The initial inspiration for this body of work came from Taback’s love for his dog Harry, who passed away last year. The seascapes were inspired by his 58-year love affair with his wife, Louise.

“The pure, forgiving, unconditional love I experienced with Harry is the kind of love Louise and I have; and this is the kind of love that God has for us,” said Taback.

“My landscape paintings are always painted on location and I am primarily interested in the effect that light has on the colors and the shapes,” said Taback.

The exhibit runs through November 12. For more on Alan Taback, visit www.AlanTaback.com, email taback@gmail.com, Facebook: Taback art, or call (609) 915-5420.
