| Artist's Reception for Marilene Sawaf ***  *** Sunday, February 21, 2010, 1 - 3 pm at New Hampshire Antique Co-op*** Enjoy a festive winter afternoon of art, antiques, and an opportunity to meet accomplished Hollis, NH artist Marilene Sawaf. Champagne, fruit and cheese will be served. ** Marilene Sawaf has received numerous award recognitions throughout New England. In addition to an extensive list of solo and collective exhibits, Sawaf's paintings have been exhibited at the Currier Museum of Art (Manchester, NH) and the Whistler House Museum (Lowell, Mass.). Sawaf is a member of the New Hampshire Art Association, the Nashua Area Art Association and the Sharon Art Center in Peterborough. ****** Influenced by past cultures, Sawaf paints reflections of women in flowered dresses set against Venetian arcades and marbled, checked floors. Often her canvases show a world filled with music and poetry woven like a tapestry with vibrant reds, golds and blues. Sawaf's richly patterned canvases are reminiscent of Medieval stained glass and Oriental carpets. Works on view in the Tower Gallery through May 3rd. |
