Wanderings through Gardens and Woods - Suzette Lebenzon

Join us in celebration of Suzette Lebenzon with "Wanderings through the Gardens and Woods" at the Jeanne Horan Gallery at Ventress Memorial Library on display January 10 - February 28. 

Artist Statement:

Over the past few years, I have continued on my painting journey, allowing myself complete license to create the images that interest me and evolve through my process. Exploring reflective water surfaces and their surrounds of vegetation and woods, has captivated me. My paintings are my visual poems, expressing my wishes, feelings, and experiences on Cape Cod and around the South Shore where I grew. Color is my love language. I’ve embraced bold, expressive marks. I am not concerned with an accurate representative depiction of a specific place, but strive to document my memory of a particular walk or locale. The intimacy and peace in the woods delight me. The chaos of an unkept garden draws me in. I use predominantly acrylic paint,  with some inks, pencil and collage materials.
