Artist Reception for “Landscapes of the Valley” by Betty Berk
Sunday, March 10, 2024
11:00 am -2:00 pm
The River Center Art Gallery
Calling her style “neo-expressionism,” Berk paints exaggerated colors in nature, sometimes as a surprise to the viewer. There is a feeling of celebration in her work as the colors and textures dance across the canvas. Berk also studies piano and describes her art as colorful expressions of the classical pieces she plays.
"Landscapes of the Valley" will be available to view until April 28, 2024, on Saturdays and Sundays from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm in the Ranch House.
