WHAT'S NEW!
Join us February 9 from 5 to 8 pm for an Artist's Evening with Jennifer Kline Vallina, owner of One Sock On Photography. Jennifer has been taking photos since she was 10 years old and has spent 30 years capturing the beauty of the world overlooked. She finds intricate patterns and mesmerizing detail in objects that we walk by every day without a second glance; her work brings a consciousness to the invisible, yet amazing landscape that surrounds us. She completed courses in photography at the University of California at Berkeley and has also studied photography at the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, California.

Ann Hayden: In 2009, Ann waved goodbye to advertising, and to Manhattan, to paint full time on Virginia's Eastern Shore. She'd been creative director at Young and Rubicam and Saatchi and Saatchi. Most of Ann's art education comes from learning to stand still, see what moves her. Click here to email her.
Ted Kliman Memorial Award for Young Artists
The family of Ted Kliman is excited to announce the winner of the first annual Ted Kliman Memorial Award for Young Artists- meant to honor the legacy of the acclaimed Washington, D.C. artist who passed away in 2009.
This year’s award goes to 14 year old Romare Marshall, a freshman at Landon School in Bethesda who lives in Hyattsville, MD. Romare’s talent is quite remarkable, and he plans to become an art historian. He is using his $500 award to take painting and drawing classes over the summer. His work will be on display, and available for purchase, at The Daily Dish as part of a group show through mid June. Pictured above: A Trio of Skulls by Romare Marshall.
Dominique Fierro, www.dominiquefierro.com. In her own words, "Currently my work is about movement and capturing the vibrations of nature. My abstract images are seen in their raw form through the camera, they are not manipulated in the darkroom or computer. Throughout the course of any given day I am always framing a shot with my eyes. I am constantly looking at the world through a camera lens ready for my next shot no matter what it is."
James Ritter (click here to email him) is displaying his artwork through April.
