Carrie’s Painting of the Week, 03/10/10
Sunset in Sonoita
By Carrie Jacobson
This one nearly slipped by me! I’ve been so wrapped up in working on “Celebrations,” my show with Shawn Dell Joyce at the Wallkill River School, that I nearly forgot to post to Zest. Yikes!
This painting, one of the ones you will see in the show, is of an area south of Tucson, Arizona, a place called Sonoita. A spine of mountains rises above the plains, which are rich with grass that glows and waves in the wind. It’s a lonely, lovely spot that picks up the colors of the air and the sun and the wide-open prairie.
Our show is on now at the gallery, 232 Ward St. (Route 17K), Montgomery. See the website (to the right) for more information. And come to the opening reception on Saturday, from 5-7 p.m.
