Let Them Eat Dessert First Indulgence has never looked this fun. Let Them Eat Dessert First transforms the Nemacolin gallery into a frothy rococo dreamscape filled with fanciful animals, over-the-top cakes, and figures straight out of a gilded daydream. Imagine a menagerie of creatures dressed to impress, desserts that defy gravity, and characters who look like they’ve just stepped out of Marie Antoinette’s secret garden party. It’s art that winks while it dazzles—decadent, whimsical, and just a little bit outrageous. Come feast your eyes (no fork required) and revel in the sweet, surreal spectacle.

As the landscape turns toward amber and ochre, Claire Hardy invites viewers into a world where the essence of Fall is rendered with warmth, sensitivity, and painterly grace. Misty Vistas is a celebration of the season’s quiet splendor—its golden light, rustling leaves, and the gentle hush that settles over the hills and fields. Hardy’s work captures the emotional texture of autumn, from the vibrant energy of early October to the introspective calm of late November. Through rich palettes and expressive brushwork, she evokes the fleeting beauty of nature in transition. Each canvas is a meditation on change—on the balance between abundance and release, color and shadow, memory and moment. Whether depicting a sunlit forest path, a misty morning meadow, or the fiery canopy of a maple grove, Hardy’s paintings resonate with a sense of place and time that is both deeply personal and universally felt. Autumn Reverie is more than a seasonal showcase; it is an invitation to pause, reflect, and find beauty in the ephemeral.
