New And Noteworthy For November at Touchstone Gallery in Hendersonville, NC

Touchstone Gallery is pleased to announce the addition of three new NC artists to its roster and whose works are being featured at its Main Street location in Historic Downtown Hendersonville, NC.

Polly Holt, who recently moved her studio from Florida to Franklin, NC, is a nationally recognized glass artist whose work was recently featured at the Corning Glass Museum in New York. Holt has embarked on a new series entitled Flower Stanards and four examples from this series are on display at Touchstone.

Multi-media artist, James Weitzel of Forest City, NC, recently delivered three imaginative furniture functional sculptures and two photographic collages to the gallery.

Asheville artist, Richard Olson will deliver at least six of his 20x20 canvases to Touhstone in early November upon completion of a more extensive show of his .work at the Front Gallery in Asheville, NC. According to Olson, these paintings represent a record "of a dialogue with an intimate and conscious cosmology of vast complexity, composed of multifaceted, connected moments."

Additionally, Touchstone Gallery is featuring new departures by established gallery favorites: After years of painting landscapes, Henry Mitchell of Greenville, SC., finds himself turning more and more to the human figure, and portraits in particular. Currently, nine new portraits are on display. Bill Hyatt, working in wood at his studio in Cullowhee, NC, offers two new turning series. One featuring mineral inlays, the second, "Blossom" vessels.
