Painting with encaustic medium can be a major challenge, as it involves creating artwork using beeswax and fire. Encaustic dates back as far as the 5th century B.C. The most famous encaustic is the Faiyum burial portrait of a young man, dating back to the Roman occupation of Egypt between 100 and 300 A.D.

This talk will discuss the history, evolution, and creative uses of modern day encaustic medium that produces a truly unique art form.

This new collection of paintings is inspired by the rhythms of nature. Accurate renditions of florals and landscapes by Cynthia Mullins alongside the magical-realism style images by Erin Nazzaro, best capture nature's beauty with stunning details and vibrant colors.

New Exhibit Opening Reception 

"COLOR AND RHYTHM" 

​

Join us for the reception to celebrate the opening of a new exhibit with new artwork by oil painter Richard Lang Chandler and sculptor Lila Turjanski-Villard.

Join us on Saturday during the Katonah Art Walk, as artist printmaker Sally Frank will show and talk about the tools and the technique, she uses to create the beautiful artwork, which is exhibited now at the gallery, as part of a duo exhibit showing the art of Sally Frank and encaustic paintings by Richard Coico.  These body of works was created expressly for this show! 

The Katonah Art Walk is on Saturday the 23rd from 3 to 7PM

​

Join us for the opening reception of a new Duo-Exhibit and as we introduce a new talented New York based artist,  Bobby K. Hill alongside a returning artist Natalya Khorover, Natalya's commitment to the environment is a driving force in her art.

The two artists followed  a different but uniquely creative path.​

Join us as artist Cynthia Mullins will demonstrate the interesting technique of layering and subtracting in the painting process. Using brushes, squeegees and other tools, the artist will show how to reveal and/or conceal prior layers to create a composition using texture, shape, and form.
 

The exhibit showcases some of my watercolor paintings of the Hudson River Valley and the New England landscape. These paintings begin when light, color and shapes align; I am then faced with the challenge of making an effective visual statement from
these elements. I feel I’m most successful when I convey my delight in the world around me,
and communicate that same joy to the viewers of my paintings.
 

​

"Italian for illuminated, "Illuminati" perfectly describes this luminous collection of recent paintings and original works on paper by renown artist Jane Cooper. Remembered moments, captured reveries and the play of light on gold, aluminum and composite leaf, create the illusion of light coming from within the paintings.​​

​

​

Exhibiting a new series of encaustic artworks by local artist Richard Coico. A lifelong fascination of science, medicine, and nature continues to inspire and influence Coico's  artistic journey with encaustics. The spontaneity in creating with bee's wax keeps him wondering what will happen next. This exhibit is about discovery, movement and the unique, mysterious blending of wax, colors and fire.

We are pleased to present a new body of works by Cynthia Mullins.
The artist has created a range of oil paintings featuring florals, alone or in a landscape setting, including fields, water and sky.  Mullins paints on aluminum boards in order to produce a texture that is all her own, while infusing the work with luminosity.
The Reception is Coinciding with the Katonah Art Walk!

Erin’s paintings are alive with color and bursting with energy.  Her work is constantly refreshed by her many visits to Latin America countries, the parts that speak to her the most are the rural areas and the indigenous people and their lives. The artist divides her work into four categories: birds, animals, people and landscapes; in this exhibit we aim to represent each category!

Using birch panels as his canvas and a blow torch as his brush, artist Richard Coico fuses together layers of color pigment and encaustic medium. The Abstract landscapes, seascapes, and wild botanicals that emerge are not as much “painted” as they are built.


 

Meet our new artist, Mireille Duchesne. In this exhibit we showcase her artistic journey, from Still Life in Chiaroscuro to landscapes, portraits and abstract paintings.
