We’re excited to announce our new partnership and monthly exhibition with the art students of The Compass Atelier Master Artist Program. Our City Center branch will morph into a revolving art show, giving students a stage to display their visual artwork and get recognized in the community. A new artist will be highlighted each month with an opening celebratory reception taking place on the first Thursday of every month. Come by and enjoy wine, food, and music as we celebrate and recognize the artists of our community. Come back monthly to see which new artist we’re featuring at our City Center branch.

Meet the artist and her work

Nature always plays the leading role in my art.  Often the intersection of natural and manmade landscapes sets the stage.   Fascinated by all trees, but especially figs, olives and gingkos. I want to share in the wonder, excitement and beauty that I find in nature, and show viewers a secret path, a magical tunnel or the bridge to an unknown but inviting place.  I paint in oil and also enjoy making monotypes.  Most of these botanical themes take place either in my back yard of Rock Creek Park (D.C.) or in Provence France.
