"Local Visions" Exhibit includes CAS members

Thursday, March 23 from 6-8 p.m. will be the opening reception for Local Visions II, a group exhibition featuring local artists (including Beverly Schirmeier and Liz Egan) curated by Jan Ayer with jurors William Childress, Dennis Pough and Clare Rogan. The Zahn Gallery is located at Middlesex Hospital Medical Center, 250 Flat Rock Place, Westbrook (on the road into Tanger Outlets). The wine and hors d'ouevres reception is open to the public and is a great opportunity to support your CAS colleagues and become familiar with the gallery space. Madison Art Society and Clinton Art Society will each have special curated exhibitions there later this year. Hope to see you there!

Thanks for sharing about the exhibition. My friend is planning to book one of highly reviewed LA event venues for her bridal shower next month. She has thought of some interesting themes and surprises for all her friends and cousins.

As an X-Ray technologist, I learned to see in black and white and shades of gray. I had to retrain my eyes and brain to see and think in color. Many “Paint by Numbers” kits in childhood, gave me an addiction to the smell of oil paint and linseed oil. When I realized that I could draw, I took many classes with local Connecticut Artists and did a lot of independent study. I did watercolors and stained glass at local craft fairs for several years. I joined the Art Guild of Middletown, CT, Studio 53/Arts and Crafts of Meriden, took classes and workshops and became active in the art world.

I taught oil painting classes for Senior Citizens in Middletown and Cromwell Ct for 12 years and taught at Salvation Army Adult Day Care while working part time as an Assistant Town Clerk in Middlefield, CT.

I’ve won numerous awards for my oils and a best in show “ for my first pastel! I am now an elected member of the Clinton Art Society, Middletown Art Society, Madison Art Society, was a core member of the Maple and Main Gallery in Chester, CT and a founding member of Clinton Art Gallery. I have been accepted in many Juried Shows. I have been part of Five Women Painting and now River Valley Artists group.

My paintings hang in homes throughout the United States, Canada and England. I recently sold two Oil Monotype Paintings to the new Davis Heart Vascular Center at Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, MA.

I started Plein Air painting with the Madison Art Society and enjoy it immensely. Lots of my new paintings are done outdoors. I recently went Mandelieu-La Napoule, France for in intensive outdoor painting workshop and painted by the canals of Venice, Italy, full of beauty and decay.
