We’ve finished our four 2021 Sunday’s @ the White Rock Farmers Market and it was wonderful to share ART by George with all the market visitors. His whimsical sculptures capture everyone’s attention and the now ‘retro’ prints from the 1970’s of simple shapes, forms and color draws them in to see the pieces up close. We want to thank all our buyers and the staff at the market for support of ART by George.
