South Bay Art Association invites our members to the 125 Gallery in Bellport.
See current works in studio, by artists John Perreault and David Adams.
Artists will be present to explain their work, and journey into the Abstract world of art. 
Lets meet at the Phoenix Gallery (#139 S Country Rd) at 7:15 and we will all walk down to 
the 125 Gallery on the corner of Station Rd.

John Perreault:
Painter, performance artist, poet and art critic John Perreault makes paintings variously with instant coffee, petroleum-coated beach sand, and most recently acrylic.

David Adams:
Using house paint abandoned at construction sites, Adams spins paint from punctured cans hung from specially constructed tripods above found tarps and other reclaimed materials.
