ArsenalARTS text & conText series presents Marie Craig & Cherie Clinton, co-directors Fountain Street Fine Art . A free event!
Fountain Street is an artist-run, member-based gallery in Framingham with a strong focus on regional art. These two artists will speak on the gallery, their art and creative process through slides and discussion.
Clinton’s paintings capture the moods, colors, and patterns of the landscape, inspired, for instance, by the unspoiled beauty of rural New England, the waterways of Venice and the surf of Greece’s Skopelos Island. “I want to grab hold of the elusive elements of mist and fog,” she writes, “to interpret the idea of space and light or an illusion of space that moves between two and three dimensions.”

Craig’s work as a medical photographer and illustrator informs her delicate, detailed photographs. “Places that are unnoticed at best, eyesores at worst, attract me like a powerful magnet,” she says of her images of abandoned structures, luminous nature in miniature, and other incongruous, unexpected scenes she comes across in her travels.
