𝗢𝗡 𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪 & 𝗙𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗘𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗦𝗘𝗣𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥 𝟭𝟮 The showcase 'Southern Reflections' pairs Louisiana painters Kathryn Keller and Shirley Rabé Masinter, two female artists, both working in wet media, with a passion for rendering landscapes. Keller’s quiet, diminutive scenes focus on pastoral environments, rendered in an impressionistic style. Using loose, quick brushstrokes and muted, earthy colors, Keller highlights the splendor of nature, often setting up her easel to work en plein air, creating within the landscape itself. In contrast, Masinter focuses on cityscapes, crafting realistic urban tableaux. Her tightly detailed, photorealistic canvases explore the beauty in the human-made, highlighting the grit and authenticity of inner-city New Orleans. Save the Date to celebrate this exhibition on Thursday, September 12th during our fall reception! Artwork (details): Shirley Rabé Masinter, Milton & J's, 2018. Watercolor on paper.
