60's in 2011
Marsha and I were in Calgary for two weeks at the end of January, seeing family and doing a multitude of things in sometimes 25 degrees C. The tips of Marsha's eyelashes froze while sliding on frozen Lake Louise. Although there are many galleries in and around Calgary, we preferred our Scottish artists' work - not that we're biased or anything. The best gallery was in Banff - note the Scottish Connection. The 60's reference in the heading is the the music of Revv52's concert. Our interest in this was (a) Marsha's sister was singing in this music group and (b) the music was a poignant reminder of my youth: Dylan, Peter, Paul and Mary, Simon and Garfunkel to name a few. Seems like yesterday.

We are a mother and daughter business team who love art, jewellery and unusual crafts and couldn't think of a better way to jointly celebrate our passion than by opening a gallery. We are incredibly lucky to have some wonderful artists who exhibit with us, mainly thanks to Peter (husband and dad) whose work within the art sector has helped us greatly with creative contacts.

Giorni piu Freddi - Autumn Exhibition & Robert Ryan glass art
New work arriving for the Autumn exhibition, Colder Days this week. I am looking forward to getting it all up on the walls! Robert Ryan came in today with his excellent new work. Check out some of these!!
Robert's work really is best viewed in the flesh, as is most art, but these give a good representation of his work.
I love the way the light catches his work! Very sparkly!
There are photos up on the gallery facebook page.... and hopefully I'll get round to updating our website really soon!

CLOSED Sunday 27th June
My gorgeous niece is being Christened this Sunday, so unfortunately the gallery will be closed for the day. I'll still be around Callander, however, if anyone specifically wants to visit then. E-mail me at info@gallerialuti.co.uk if this is the case.

Peter Luti and new exhibition.
It's that time when we're just about to start hanging the new exhibition again. It always comes round much faster than I think it will! We have some absolute gems from Peter Luti again... good work dad!
He tells me that he's going on a 'research' trip to Barra next week (although the word PUB has been mentioned more than a couple of times). I'm happy though, as it means lots of new boaty paintings. Love it!
The new exhibition is looking like it's gonna be lovely and colourful - just what I like! And we have quite a few purple orientated paintings. Excellent - I love purple!
Check out the website Galleria Luti for all the new work as it arrives. Everything should be up by Saturday (fingers crossed), so looking forward to seeing all the lovely paintings on the walls.Marsha

Something a bit different - Peter Luti
Something new and a bit unsual from dad who has been busy painting away as normal.
He's used a different technique for this cathedral piece to give an eerie green effect on the lines of the building. Might take a bit of time to perfect this.... but it is definitely a good start!
He has come up with the goods (as he always does!) with some other pieces too.
And I'm quite excited as dad has been working on a gorgeous purple (my current colour of choice) and blue painting which will be ready soon. I love it already... it'd look grand in my new living room (hint, hint dad).
More pictures will be coming as and when pieces are finished. Check out all the art we have at http://www.gallerialuti.co.uk/

Last night we had a lovely evening with the Women in the Trossachs group, who came along to hear a bit about the gallery.
It was a nice opportunity to mingle and get some chat with like-minded women living and working in the area. Check out thir website at http://www.womeninthetrossachs.org.uk
I even made some mini pizzas for the occassion (which I think I ate most of! Yummy!).

Michael Kay Jewellery
Had a lovely chat with Michael Kay yesterday who was down with some new work. This little gold ring with a cubic zirconia is my absolute favourite piece of jewellery of all time.
I love it! I don't think it'll be on display for much longer as I may well snap it up for myself!
Michael's rule of thumb is that no two pieces he makes will be the same. It always makes for a delightful surprise when he brings work in.
This amethyst and moonstone choker (trillium) is lovely too - almost like angel wings. Good job Michael! You can see all of Michael's pieces at www.gallerialuti.co.uk or on our facebook page.
