Friday, I went to the opening of Then and Now, 1943 -2011 an exhibition of Sidney Chafetz's artwork at the Sherrie Gallery. At 89 Sid still has a twinkle in his eye and he continues to amaze with his output of artwork. He is, as he said, "Still raising Cain!"

The man can draw, but we knew that. I have been telling artist friends if you want to see it all: good composition, good value, interesting marks and above all art, and art that has something to say, GO SEE THIS EXHBIT.
I consider myself lucky to have had and still have Sid as one of my teachers and a dear friend.

Edie, thanks for posting this. What a treat to see this exhibition with you today. I had a hard time just looking at the work because I was SO excited by the markmarkig along. Not only can the man draw, he knows how to work a surface! So much to learn by looking at this exhibition. Now if I could just buy them all. Ooooh! Worth every penny.
You really are lucky to have studied and continue to have this artist in your life.
