“Emotions of Color” an exhibit of paintings by Phyllis Shipley. Phyllis is internationally known for her colorful art work. She has been producing fine art paintings for the past thirty years and has been a successful gallery owner, art show participant and award winner, and a continuing student in the details of water-color and acrylics. Phyllis says, “Painting, for me, is driven by emotion. And color relates that emotion. As I layer thin glazes of paint, my subject evolves as my "inner vision" dictates in expressing strength, gentleness, rhythm and color. Color is all around us and has a way of producing reactions to our senses. “Emotions of Color” is my story as I strive to express joy, surprise, memories, desires,longings and energy for life in my work. Can you relate?” The exhibit runs from January 31 to February 27. This non-profit gallery is open Monday to Saturday 9 am to 7 pm, and Sundays 10 am to 3 pm.
