Emily is an emerging young artist,
originally from Washington, D.C. and currently residing here in the beautiful
Shenandoah Valley.
Emily attended the
Washington Waldorf School in Bethesda, where she was introduced to the artistic
philosophy of Rudolph Steiner
-
bright lines, ethereal subjects of fairies,
gnomes and imaginative play.
Emily's
current interest is oil painting in an eclectic abstract style.
She creates on large canvases using bright
jewel tones and vivid colors.
The opening celebration and preview of Emily's exhibit is scheduled for 6pm on Friday, July 5, 2013 at Artisans Downtown Gallery & Gifts. The event is free and open to the public. Complimentary wine, cheese, and
