Opening Reception- Faces and Places
Art by Tom Pender of CenterSpring Studio
As a visual artist," Tom Pender paints "what [he] knows. Familiarity allows
greater freedom for creative flow." Faces and Places epitomizes creative familiarity in a collection of oil portraits, city and landscapes.

Pender was formally trained as an "old school painter." He also earned a BFA in graphic illustration from Paier College of Art and Albertus Magnus. Pender was most influenced by impressionistic era artists and his paintings reflect a blend of his illustrative and fine arts background.

Pender says, "As a painter I enjoy sharing my perspective of the world with everyone around me." Come view and enjoy Pender's perspective while his works are at The Buttonwood Tree!

Sherman Ewing
Folk Rock
Sherman Ewing’s music is his own unique mix, suggesting a maturity, despite his 40 young years, that comes from development of a multi-dimensional sound. That sound can be traced back to his native Minnesota, a virtual rock and roll holy land of the Midwest. His sound is also seasoned through two decades of experience as a street wise singer/songwriter in New York City.
