“Organic Harmony” reunites transparent watercolorist Anne Landis with master metalsmith sculptor Loretta Tryon for a joint show that explores the special relationship of form, color and nature.
Anne is a self-taught watercolor artist whose original art work has earned awards at multiple local juried exhibits annually. The patience required for this process derives from over 30 years teaching special education, 20 years visiting hospice patients, leading an art therapy volunteer program and raising a family including a special needs daughter.
She has recently specialized in the detailed painting of true miniatures, which are exhibited and sold in numerous juried shows throughout the United States.
Loretta is a contemporary metalsmith based in the Lehigh Valley and is known for her elegant use of shell forming and anticlastic raising techniques. She creates sculptural works in sterling silver and bronze that blur the line between wearable art and organic form.
Loretta’s work has been exhibited internationally and regionally, including in Milan, Italy, the James A. Michener Art Museum in Doylestown, PA, and the State Museum of Pennsylvania.
The Stover Mill Gallery show runs weekends only, starting on Saturday, August 8 through Sunday, August 30, from 1 pm to 5 pm with Meet the Artist receptions the opening weekend. Stover Mill Gallery is located at 852 River Road (Route 32), Erwinna. Call 610-294-9420 for information.
