Continue your art journey as VIVA Gallery, (Viroqua Independent Visual Artists) welcomes Pete Daniels as the guest artist and M’Lou Wilkie as the featured member artist for February. 

Pete Daniels works in acrylics.  He likes to work conceptually while exploring the abstract and surreal. One of his pieces explores the repeating hexagons in the sculpture of the community of bees in their hives. His art has recently been in a solo show at Organic Valley and on display at the Viroqua Food Coop.

Come meet Daniels and Wilkie at VIVA’s First Thursday on February 7, 2013 from 5-7 p.m.  The gallery is located at 217 South Main Street in Viroqua.  For more information about this and future First Thursday events, contact the gallery at 608-637-6918 or info@vivagallery.net.
