FRATELLI's CAFE GALLERY
Flower Series- Solo Exhibit by Kay Coop
June 1 - 30
|
"I work primarily in watermedia in a variety of styles, but am drawn to high value contrast, bright colors and strong shapes."
"The Flower Series was inspired by the beauty of flowers seen primarily in the mid-south, many in the Memphis Botanic Garden itself, and a few others during my travels."
"These acrylic paintings are representational, but abstracted by the use of color saturation, light and shadow. Butterflies lend a 'flight of fancy' to any garden. Dine while surrounded by a blaze of small blasts of color."
