Wild Things and Wild Places a show of paintings by Shannon Bueker

Wild Things and Wild Places a show of paintings in acrylic by Shannon Bueker at the Carolina Brewery in Pittsboro, NC.

Wild Things and Wild Places displays 15 works from the past two years, acrylic paintings that continue to describe Shannon’s love for nature’s wonders. All of the pieces have come from travels to the NC coast or sketches made right in Shannon’s backyard and neighborhood. “Everything starts in my sketchbook, from the barest gesture drawings to plans and note-taking on things I see but don’t have time to draw”.

Subject: Excellent food — exciting photography at the Pittsboro Carolina Brewery

Good morning folks:

Last night (Saturday) Carol-Ann and I had dinner at the Brewery. I guess in honor of Mardi Gras season, one of the specials is Shrimp PoBoys. They were really good. The beer is always really good. A new exhibit has been organized by the Chatham Artists Guild, featuring photographers Mark Bashista and Roy Lindholm. If you enjoy wonderful images wonderfully displayed, stop for a really good meal and see the art.

Subject: Japanese Restaurant

After a weekend that was full of “events” we decided to give ourselves a treat and go check out the new Japanese restaurant near Carolina Brewery.  Well, we won’t do that again! 

The “kitchen” area had folks that seemed to be just standing around, but the tables were all dirty.  The floor was dirty.  The food “came out” in just about 3 minutes — the sushi was warmer than room temperature, the other entres seemed to have been slopped off of a steam table that had been steaming for much too long.
