NORTH SHORE ARTS ASSOCIATION ANNOUNCES: NOTED ROCKPORT ARTIST, BONNIE GRAY, “I Love To Paint!” SOLO EXHIBITION. June 4 – June 27, 2015. Opening Reception June 14th, 2 – 4 pm. Open and free to the public.
Enjoying the challenge of painting still life, landscapes, and florals in oil, Gray says, “I love to paint! I appreciate the richness of the colors made possible using oil on canvas, and strive to create a sense of realism. A day spent painting is as refreshing as any vacation day might be. My interest in art, and love of painting is without doubt one of the great blessings in my life, and I strive to convey that feeling in my work.”
Having studied at Massachusetts College of Art while in high school, Gray was also a student of the late Helen Van Wyk, focusing on still life painting with a concentration in the techniques of the Dutch Masters. In addition to being an artist member of the North Shore Arts Association since 1995, she has been a member of the Local Colors Artists’ Cooperative in Gloucester, MA since 2008. Her work can be found in private collections on Cape Ann and around the country.
