Local Landscapes Show Draws to a Close


It's the last week to see "Local Landscapes" by Gretchen Hatfield and Daisy Adams. The two Dover painters have captured familiar scenes which are truly bursting with hometown pride.

Hatfield's view of the Central Ave Barber Shop tips its hat to Norman Rockwell in both subject and charm... but this is really our town. Hatfield has not imagined this scene, merely encapsulated it. The same can be said of her portrait of the Dover Mounted Police and City Hall.

Adams' approach could be seen as a bit tongue-in-cheek due to some of her seemingly odd subject choices. But she truly sees beauty and present day nostalgia in the welcoming glow of Smiley's and the lure of Trophy's Wing Night. This is our home and we love it.


Hatfield: City Hall 12" x 12" acrylic on panel $60

Adams: Trophy's Wing Night acrylic on paper $55

PRINTMAKERS show at Lucy's


PRINTMAKERS

May 4th - June 6th
Opening Reception Friday May 7 5-7 PM

Lucy's Art Emporium will display the work of three printmakers during the month of May. Laura Utley, Deloris White and Erin Landry Fowler work in various methods including drypoint, monotype and linocut.

White, Director of Fine Arts at Berwick Academy, works in intaglio. Her masterful prints of flowers and animals are created by etching metal plates with tiny lines and textures.

The bold linocuts of Landry Fowler bring a modern spin to the age old process of printmaking. Thickly outlined subjects are framed by just the right amount of bold color. Her portraits of modern day models carrying laundry or planting a garden capture the beauty of everyday life.

Utley, a Dover resident and recent graduate of Plymouth State University, creates one-of-a-kind abstract pieces using foam printing plates. Working in layers, Utley combines shape and color to invent vibrant worlds full of depth and movement.
