‘SUBTLE’ an exhibition of drawings by BRENDA BETTINSON
Twenty impressive drawings by virtuoso artist Brenda Bettinson are now on display at Mathias Fine Art. The range of subject matter takes the viewer from the natural to the mechanical. There are subtly colored forms and monochrome compositions. Botanical images of much greater than usual size are juxtaposed with expressive creative depictions of machinery or machine parts. Gorgeous, innovative and elegant!
Gallery hours: through October 20, 2019 Wed – Sun noon to 5pm and by appointment.
Reception: 10/5/19 2:30-4:30pm
Gallery Talk: On 10/10 from 2:00 to 3:00 pm
gallerist Cordula Mathias will speak about ‘SUBTLE’ the current exhibition at Mathias Fine Art. ‘SUBTLE’ is a selection of drawings by Brenda Bettinson. To say that Brenda is an expert would be an understatement. Her credits include an impressive teaching career, both inside and outside academia. She has a solid exhibition record and has contributed to the arts as juror, commentator and life-long practitioner.
