Ed & Caren Murray Art Series features artist Colette Odya Smith

Event Description:

Feature Artist: Colette Smith, soft pastels and watercolor artist. Known for working in pastels for nearly 30 years, Colette is a painter of contemporary landscapes that often blur the distinctions between realism and abstraction. The driving force behind her work is her interest in finding and amplifying the beauty and mystery that exists quietly all around us, both obvious and hidden. Colette is always looking for ways that the humblest scenes reveal profound insights and offer wordless understanding. The artist reception will be held at 6 p.m. on Sept. 5 in the Surbrugg Prentice Auditorium Lobby/ Esther and John Clay Fine Arts Gallery.
