The Royal Raven |
The
artistic journey of Amy Bartell began some 30 years ago as a student
on the shores of Lake Ontario. It was on the campus of SUNY Oswego
that she was introduced to all things “art” and the mixed media
approach to her art that she employs today. Eventually Amy would
return to the Oswego campus where she currently teaches graphic
design and illustration.
It's
with this backdrop that Gallery 54, here, has invited Amy to be only
its fifth Guest Artist of the 2015 season. Her show “Landings”,
open Friday, September 4 from 5 – 8 pm and runs through September
29. Amy will showcase her series of “intimate and introspective
bird portraits”. Her mixed media paintings employ the use of
gouache, a thick, opaque watercolor medium, as well as pencil and
more traditional watercolors.
Amy,
who owns AE Originals, is also Assistant Gallery Director at SUNY
Oswego. Her month-long exhibit at Gallery 54 will include original
images as well as prints and notecards, all of which will be
available for purchase.
The
Friday, September 4 opening at Gallery 54 will provide the
opportunity to meet Amy as well as to enjoy the music of Chris Molloy
and his Electric Blue Harp. Light refreshments will be served.
Gallery 54 is an upscale gallery of fine art and crafts, located at
54 E. Genesee St., Skaneateles, NY.
September gallery hours are Sunday through Thursday, 10-5 and Friday and Saturday, 10-6.
