Exhibition by Bobbie Castleman
Bobbie Castleman will have her work on display at Artistic Edge Gallery for the month of June. She has written a book “When Life Gave Me Lemons”. The book is the story of a young girl’s misfortunes and blessings and how they affected all the people around her throughout her life. She attempts to show others what it means to have courage and deal with whatever happens. The story will show declines into holes of darkness and despair, and the scratching and clawing to climb out of those dark holes only to slip and slide back, time after time, finally to remain on top, in the brightness. The story tells about poverty, Polio, and the struggle to survive the Great Depression. It is a story of a young girl who barely survived a car accident, and of the thirty to forty surgeries it took to repair her face. Bobbie’s accident took place as a young teenager and now slightly over 80 Bobbie would like you to come view her paintings she created during her recovery. There will be over 30 of her beautiful watercolors on display.
