Perilous Places
March 1-May 31
Darcy Zoells' love of illustration and picture books was honed at the Hinsdale Public Library when she was a child. Since then she has had many jobs in and out of the arts, while continuing to build her portfolio. Darcy works in watercolor, ink, pencil, and cut or ripped paper. These are scanned into the computer and collaged together. The pieces exhibited are giclee prints on Hahnemuhle art paper.
