Item Description
Once again, WXXI proudly welcomes Jim Christy on board as the Featured Artist for its annual Auction! A Rochester native, Jim Christy has an abiding interest in both historic and present day scenes around his hometown. Let's go to Charlotte! With his beautiful watercolor painting of Charlotte Beach, Jim invites us to enjoy ourselves and simply have a good time, like visitors to Charlotte have been doing for the past hundred years. Where river meets lake, you'll discover enchantment all around you. Let your spirit drift to new heights, like a kite dancing on a string, taking in all the wonderful possibilities at once: a warm sandy beach, the historic carousel, pavilions and gazebos, the original bath house that is now a spacious community center, the Port of Rochester complex, historic ships visiting the harbor, popular restaurants, an historic light house, The Rochester Yacht Club, young nautical students in small sailboats, and so much more. Bid high and delight in one of Rochester's gems, painted by one of Rochester's treasures! Jim maintains a studio at his home where he paints for galleries, here and in Florida, and accepts commissions. For several years Jim has contributed his artwork to the Auction and says he is honored to have this featured artist position.
