East Meets East
It’s the Year of the Tiger
This new year will prove to be a wonderful, fulfilling one as the tiger is an extremely auspicious sign. This time of year is celebrated in many countries. Japan, China, Tibet, Thailand and more. We will be featuring pieces from all these countries as well as others.
Central to the exhibit is a fantastic family shrine from the early 1900’s. It’s spectacular in black and gold with all the appropriate accessories. We also have many Buddha’s and Quan Yin’s for you to select from and an antique Buddha in bronze and gold will reside in this altar.
Check out the tiger with chests, tables, altars and accessories in our window. We know it will be a good year as in our other window we show a life size baboon fortune teller and her client and has confirmed it!
Besides all of this we feature our 30 artists, our famous animals and a wonderful collection of African art. Come see all that we have and help us celebrate the Year of the Tiger!

Safari II
Yes! We are open at our new location at 300 East Main Street at Second.
We were excited to be able to host the First Friday Art Walk on July 2nd, opening our doors at 5pm. This was the first “walk” since March 2019! It was a fantastic night for greeting old friends and customers and even exchanging a few hugs.
This show features the work of Vernon Lawhorn and his wife Jane (Vernon passed at the young age of 45) He dearly loved Africa and captured the animals and people in his art wonderfully. Jane did fantastic and innovative presentation and is now an artist in her own right. Judy Benson Le Nier organized photographic safaris in Africa traveling to a different location each year. Her photographs reveal the inner workings of the wild animals mind.
In addition , we show masks, jewelry, figures, furniture and more from long ago African artists.
Our hours are 11-5, closed Sunday and Monday. Come journey with us!

Artist As Poet II
A Poet’s Garden
Although we are temporarily closed, our Poet’s Garden can be seen through our windows. We’ve added a few things so the scenes are fresh. You’ll find an Oriental garden up front with a table where the poet has been working on his calligraphy. Examples by Liz Sheppard are above. Next is a natural setting with photographs by Ken Deveney and Jonah Bornstien and Steve pens a trail sketchbook. They are surrounded by pods, leaves and mushrooms. Straight ahead is the Italian garden with a beautiful outdoor sculpture holding a cornucopia of roses and ivy. Above her on a pedestal is a massive arrangement of more roses and trailing vines set off on the wall with a romantic painting by Rebecca Gabriel. There is a table set with Chianti and fruit for the gardener who is taking a break planting – basket and hat set aside. In the far corner you’ll find the French country garden. Bright and colorful with grape vines and a wonderful painting by Pegi Smith ” She Dreams of Ravens”.
Enjoy!
Artist As Poet
A Poet’s Garden
Gallerie Karon’s next show, opening April 3rd, is all about Spring. The whole front gallery space will be transformed into a series of gardens – Japanese, Italian and natural settings. The whole effect is romantic and fit for a poet!

OUR PHANTOM ARTISTS
Gallerie Karon’s October show is appropriately all about phantoms and masks. Wonderful artists who have died or moved away and seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth, not to be found (ghosts or phantoms?). At any rate, they still show their outstanding artwork with us as do others who have simply moved away but still in touch.
Our phantoms include Jack MccLarty, Mari, Vernon Lawhorn, Micki McCormic and others. Along with their artwork we will show is masks from many countries. Masks from Africa to Japan and others.
The final category for the show will be a variety of puppets, (hand, string and rod). Look for the sales display of puppet heads and the English butler, monsters and very stranger “others”! Complete puppets are the “Villain” and the ” Witch” and a roller skating cow too!! Many of these are vintage and some are more contemporary like Kermit the Frog. Natural life like animal puppets complete the show.
It’s fun and spooky at the same time. Not so spooky is the live music jazz trio, Stolen Moments playing from 5 to 8 on First Friday.
The Female of the Species Part II
Our traditional invitational all women artists show continues through September. Our biggest show of the year, this is part two. Over twenty artists in all mediums are represented and part two features some changes.
The highlight of the First Friday Art Walk (Sept. 6) will be Middle Eastern dances by Zahara, professional dancer and her musicians! We welcome the opportunity to share her exotic and graceful dance movements with you.
Sarah Bronson had brought in more of her handmade cards in a Goddess theme. The Downton Abbey tribute continues with the addition of an unbelievable menu (in linen) for a feast for the Prince Regent in 1917 (36 entries!) Adele Hiles shows animal boxes based on her paintings of tigers and cheetahs. Jewelry by Karen Wasser uses replicas of the same paintings in one of a kind pendants. Janet Patterson shows another one of her prize winning pastels.
The Female of the Species – Part I
Our traditional invitational all women artists show opens August 2nd.
Images Through the Eye of the Lens
Come see how real artists are presenting the art of photography. You’ll be inspired to take a lesson or two, read up on techniques and perfect your own art!
We’re honored to have Terry Skinny, Ashland’s own premier Historic Commission’s photographer. We’ll be showing individual photographs and our portfolio of Ashland’s Historic Railroad District is always available for viewing.
We’ll also show portraits by Pam Danielle, nature photography by Jim Langhofer, Jamie Lusch and Judy Benson La Near. Landscapes are covered by Todd Davis and Jesse Widener.Travel shots from around the world are by Ken Deveney, Steve Dieffenbacher and Andi Taylor. Other artists offer unique and varied techniques such as iphoneography and digital blitting, among others.
Around 18 artists are showing their work this month. There’s definitely inspiration to be found at Gallerie Karon!
Safari ! Part II – Deeper into Africa
You’ll see artifacts from Ashanti to Yuruba and from areas from Benin to Nigeria in this show. Exotic pieces include masks for ceremonies including face, helmet and shoulder types. (The wearer was host to a sacred being and not to be seen) Furniture, hand carved and handprinted, some with hammered metal embellishments, are not to be missed! These include stools of all kinds and a carved wood cabinet for sacred herbs and medicines. Our centerpiece is a rare handmade leopard bench made for a very prominent King or Chief. (the leopard is a sign of power and this one is munching on a crocodile ) We love our leopards and have several in bronze from Benin (one is life size!) These are complimented with photographs by Judy Benson LeNeir. Pegi Smith has contributed a striking portrait of an African woman. The late Vernon Lawhorn and his wife Jane, show more portraits and versions of textiles in paintings. All these exotic pieces will be on display for purchase in our main gallery and in our new special African room in the The Feathered Wing,
Safari!
Safari ! A Journey to Africa
Artifacts from Ashanti to Yuruba, from Benin to Nigeria.
You’ll find textiles to hang or drape and masks to hang or display on custom made stands. One of these masks, heavily beaded, was made for a King , a man of powerful but dubious history.
Others were used in ceremonies to insure good crops, fertility or to celebrate auspicious occasions.
Many were worn for ceremonial dances (if the wearer couldn’t see, he was supported and guided by men on either side)
Fantastic furniture will be shown – the most unusual being a hand carved cabinet for sacred herbs and medicines and is carved all around.
Last and our most favorite, a procession of Benin bronze leopards, the largest being life size. These will be accompanied by photographs of leopards by Judy Benson LeNeir, Vernon Lawhorn and Pegi Smith. All these exotic pieces will be displayed for purchase in the main section of Gallerie Karon and an all new special room in The Feathered Wing.

Faces Hidden and Revealed – Held Over!
Masks, Puppets and Portraits
There’s a couple of twists to the annual mask and puppet show this year at Gallerie Karon. We’ve added portraits to the mix. That area will include work by Robert Paulmenn, Pam Danielle, Brooks Garden Hauschild and Richard LeVitt among others.
The most unusual offering is from a private collection of vintage ventriloquist dummies. It’s rare to see a grouping like this and all for sale!
Hand puppets are also in the evidence and many, many animals are represented. Other puppets are stringed marionettes.
Our extensive mask collection comes from all over the world. It includes helmet, face and shoulder masks. ( We have a few fun ones for Halloween wearing too! )
Female of the Species Part II
All Women Artists Invitational
Over 20 female artists are represented in this popular annual show. Part II opens September 7. The main attraction for this segment is the 6 1/2 ‘X 6 1/2’ photographic wall hanging of two giraffes taken by Judy Benson LeNier in Tanzania. This spectacular piece is the first of its kind to be shown for sale at Gallerie Karon.
Pam Danielle is back with two photographs of local males. There is also a portfolio of all the types of photography she does in her local studio – weddings to portraits.
Whitney Rolfe shows her latest work. Color rather than black and white and loose abstracts rather than tight geometries. She is now working in mixed media.
One of a kind hand painted, highly spiritual rattles trimmed with feathers, leather and beads that each have their own unique sound, made by Kelly Springer.
As you can see, Part II involves many new additions to this annual show at Gallerie Karon
The Female of The Species
Over 20 artists are represented in this popular annual show. Everything from photography to pastels, collage to mixed media and everything in between is available. Many of the artists will be here at Gallerie Karon to answer questions about your selections.
Images Through the Eye of the Lens
It’s been several years since Gallerie Karon has done an all photography show. Photography artists have become more and more important despite the realization that everyone has a cell phone with a camera. It’s a fact that a snap of your Aunt Maudy in front of the Taj Mahal or a cute selfie is not art. Our artists will inspire to take more time, care and possibly a lesson or two to produce really worthy pictures.
Included in our show are about 15 artists including Pam Danielle, Todd Davis, Jesse Widener and Jamie Lusch. Subjects include portraits, wildlife and scenes from Ashland and Africa. There are a full range of styles and techniques such as silver prints, color, black and white and prints on metal. There is inspiration to be found at this exhibit at Gallerie Karon!
Husbands, Wives and Lovers
Inspired By Love
Art by couples, some working alone, and some creating joint projects. a good example is Shoshanah Dubliner and her husband Craig R. Comstock who worked on the same painting, brush stroke by brush stroke.
Raina Bradshaw contributes one of a kind using semi precious beads and Swarovski crystals.Roger Bradshaw has several different CDs, one solo and two with his band, 221 Fly. John Hauschild will also contribute several of his classic blues CDs and his wife, Brooks, will present one of her mixed media paintings. Several of our couples artists, have moved from Ashland but continue to share with us. This includes Jerri Cook ( porcelain portraits) and her husband,Bruce Barton (aphorisms, poetry and books)
These are just a few of our artists inspired by love.(Of course we never reveal who the lovers are!)
