Frontlit/Backlit - Paintings by Sarah Hartshorne


Red
30 x 40"
Oil on Canvas


The Odd Couple
36 x 24"
Oil on Canvas

Hartshorne’s realistic oil paintings capture the unique in the ordinary, the beauty in the mundane. Although this particular exhibition focuses on her mouth-watering still lives, she paints what so often goes unnoticed at our hectic modern pace: the unusual angle of a fork next to a gracefully draped napkin, or, the way a wine glass reflects the nearby candle light. Hartshorne explores the play of light and shadow, and brings her subjects alive with color. This is her first solo show at Matrix Fine Art.

Exhibition dates: April 2 – May 1
(Early Bird Preview: March 30 – April 2)

First Friday Artscrawl Reception: April 2, 5 – 8:00 PM
