The Rocky Neck Art Colony proudly presents Phyllis Feld—A Retrospective, a three-day exhibition curated by Dina Gomery, showcasing the works of Phyllis Feld (1941–2023) at Cove Gallery, 37 Rocky Neck Ave.
Phyllis Feld, a Gloucester resident, worked from her studio overlooking the inspiring Cripple Cove. An award-winning artist and cherished member of the Cape Ann arts community, Phyllis passed away suddenly in May 2023 at the age of 81, leaving works in progress and dreams of new creations. She loved painting en plein air, finding the experience both challenging and “liberating.”
A perfectionist with high standards, Phyllis brought the same dedication to her art as she did to her career as a space designer. Her oil paintings are known for their fine detail, tonal depth, and atmospheric quality. She was an active member of the Rocky Neck Art Colony, North Shore Arts Association, Gallery 53 (now The Salted Cod), Central Street Gallery in Manchester-by-the-sea, and the Marblehead and Concord Art Associations.
This retrospective offers an opportunity to honor Phyllis’s memory, celebrate her legacy, and reflect on her contributions to the artistic community. The gallery will be open during Columbus Day weekend, October 12, 13 and 14, from noon to 6 PM, with a reception on Sunday from 3-6 PM.
