BETHLEHEM, PA.- "New Works/Classic Traditions," oil painter Becky Reilly fills Ambre' Studio, Weds, March 18 to Friday, May 15 with new works based on traditional, classic 17th century European master still life paintings. Composed of fruit, flowers and special objects, Reilly illuminates canvases to play on the emotion of the moment, and bring importance to everyday objects and genre.
A resident of Bucks County, Reilly has been lauded by Victoria Donahoe, of The Philadelphia Inquirer who wrote: "Reilly looks to old masters in her oils, which have their own slow, unhurried grace. My only quibble: There is not hint that these fruits and veggies were painted today, instead of in the 17th century."
Reilly will conduct an artist demonstration Sunday, April 19, from 12 noon to 4 p.m. at Ambre' Studio. Ambre' Studio is located at 310 West Broad Street, Bethlehem, PA and is the premier grand prize Properties of Merit 2006 winner. Ambre' Studio is available for private bookings, corporate and special events.
