Art Exhibit
Mixed media paintings, by local artist Saundra Trom Corliss, will be on disply at the the Arts Center through April 27. The public is invited to view the exhibit during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. To arrange for evening viewing hours, call the Arts Center office.
Saundra specializes in abstract acrylic and mixed media paintings. Her approach to painting integrates physical and visual textures with abstract imagery. The paintings incorporate recycled materials such as candy wrappers, packing materials, cardboard, and wire mesh. Layers of acrylic paints with intense pigments add visual interest to her artwork.
In conjunction with her exhibit, she is offering classes at the arts center starting on March 24 for experienced realism artists. Students will find the class to be a refreshing departure from traditional practice, as they will learn to combine realism with abstract to enhance artistic skill. For more information about Saundra you can go to her website at www.tromstudio.com.
The Lakeville Area Arts Center is located at 20965 Holyoke Ave. For additional information, or to register for Saundra's class, call 952-985-4640.
