Lynne Feldman

"Painting is easy. All you have to do is stare at a blank

canvas until drops of blood appear on your forehead"

 

 

Our November show features the well know artist Lynne Feldman of Rochester.

She has been a painter in oils for the past 40 years and discovered Serigraphy (silk screen printing) in 1990. "I do all of my own color separations so, for me, this is a very ‘painterly’ form of printing. " She entered the Art Students League of New York at age 12 and studied there for 15 years. She has a Master’s degree in Art Education from Columbia University. Her works have been exhibited in galleries, public spaces and museums around the country.

The reception is Sunday November 18 from 1-3 and the show will run from November 13th through December 22nd.
