An Exhibit of Diverse Beauty

Artists seem to see through different eyes, while we get to enjoy the product of their vision and their inspiration when they share their works of art as a whole. Come see for yourself when The Woodstock Group exhibits beautiful works of art in the Kavanagh Gallery at Fine Line Creative Arts Center in St. Charles.

“These five women artists originally met in Woodstock (IL) where they painted together. They formed The Woodstock Group, which has held a number of group exhibitions during the past several years,” said member artist Betty Schmidt. “Their artwork encompasses oil, acrylic and watercolor, while their styles vary from realism to impressionism. In each of their individual ways, the artists create their own interpretations of something special to them. Overall, the paintings are peaceful and calming.”

The participating artists, who live throughout the western suburbs, include: Barbara Brown, Anita Kaiser, Betty Schmidt, Astrid Enskat, and Carol Keene.

Come meet the artists in person at this exhibit’s Opening reception, Saturday, July 12, 2 – 4:3- pm. Four of the participating artists will speak briefly, at 3 pm, about their artwork. Treats to enjoy at the opening will include mouth-watering handmade gelato, donated by All Chocolate Kitchen in Geneva. This event is free and open to all.

Fine Line Creative Arts Center is a nonprofit art school offering adult classes and workshops in a range of fine arts. Two galleries, free and open to all, are included on the Fine Line campus, and feature local to international artists. For information on classes and more, please visit www.fineline.org.
