Pembroke Artist Paul Crimi's Second January Show



The volunteers at Pembroke Community Media Center gladly present a second January Episode of "Expressions in Painting" filmed January 30th, 2013.  Pembroke High School students earn community service credit hours towards graduation by working crew for Paul. 

The piece from January 15th's episode was finished in the past 2 weeks, and is reintroduced at the evening's start.

 "It really has a nice personality. It has a beautiful, sun-bathed side. And it's got this really nice shadow on the sidewalk. It has a nice quietness about it. I'm very, very pleased with the way this painting came out," Paul tells us.

As he did in the show 2 weeks ago, Paul again displays the floral signature painting for his Cancer Support Community Exhibition from 1-5pm on Feb 10th at 110 Longwater Drive, Norwell, Massachusetts. "Please come, " Paul says, "because we're trying to do something about cancer."

There's a finished birch tree painting, and a panoramic of 'The Spit" at the show's start too.

"I really like the tranquility and the quietness of it,' Paul comments on "The Spit" piece. Every time I paint this, somebody comes in and buys it, which is a great thing because artists need somebody to buy their work."

In this January 30th episode, Paul paints from a still life. One of Paul's viewers, Theresa, wants to know what brushed are used, so Paul obliges.

Paul paints and talks not only about artwork, but about his life.

Did you know he is going to Ethiopia in September 2013?  "There's a bunch of us going from a prayer group in Abington. Then there's a bunch of Irish people coming from Ireland and they're going to meet us in Washington, and we're all going to go. And that ought to be fun."
