Fairfield County "It!" had a fabulous time at Pearl at Longshore in Westport Thursday night enjoying great eats, drinks and jazz!! We saw STEVE SANDBERG AND CO. Three time Emmy-nominated composer/pianist Steve Sandberg played original music that masterfully blended classical, world music and jazz with the excitement of virtuosic improvisation. For this show, Steve reunited with his old friend, the great bassist Jeff Fuller, as well as fiery drummer Matt Moadel and the Jazz rabbi himself. It was a great night! Here is our appreciative crowd! Also, on view in the Gallery @ Pearl is an exhibit featuring artist Jennifer Williams. An Australian born contemporary oil painter. Her recent cityscape series captures the essence of gesture, line, and form as she communicates the majesty of our urban landscape as she perceives them, full of movement and light. The viewer is invited to see an intimate view of the city, free from traffic and people, viewed through foliage in Central Park or from the gardens of Paris. When not painting Jennifer owns and operates a movement therapy practice at Mission Survivor Center in Southport CT. Her study of anatomy and movement are apparent in her paintings where one can feel the rhythm and structure of her compositions as she builds depth layer by layer. She holds a BA in Business, has studied fine arts at Parsons School of Design in New York and continues to paint at Silvermine School of Art in New Canaan. She is currently showing in Paris and Connecticut and has works on permanent exhibit at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital. She is a member of The Westport Artists Collective, SPAG and an exhibiting member at The Rowayton Arts Center. Her work is held in private collections in the US, Europe, Australia, and the Caribbean. An enjoyable collection of Cityscapes you should see! Spring, Summer and Fall are fantastic on the Patio at Pearl. Views are wonderful at Pearl and Sunday Brunch is scrumptious!! Comments are closed.
