Meet the Artist Reception for Barbara Shapiro at Ridgefield Library
July 8 @ 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Free
On Saturday, July 8th @ 2:00 pm (new date), join us at the Ridgefield Library and meet artist Barbara Shapiro. Barbara’s exhibit, “In Harmony: Abstraction & Figuration” will be finishing up its run on July 9th – last chance to see it!
Her prints, paintings and multimedia artworks exhibit a harmony between abstraction and figuration and also allow for a delicacy and boldness informed by line, color and balance.
Of her multi-media figurative work the artist states: “I appreciate and exploit the sensitivity of working from life by creating both delicate drawings and bold paintings. I do them on both paper and polyester film utilizing acrylic paint, charcoal pencils, soft pastels, oil pastels, watercolor and pastel pencils.”
Of her abstract work Barbara says: “My multi-media abstract work is often more dramatic and experimental in both my paintings and prints. I am a printmaker who travels between monotypes, pronto plate lithographs, dry points and carborundum prints that are done on either paper or film.”
The reception will run from 2:00-4:00 pm. Refreshments will be served. Learn more.
