About the event
Stark and subtle, the hushed snowscapes and vast winter skies in Claire Howard’s new exhibition evoke the heightened anticipation of a hopeful new year.
Focusing on winter-themed oil paintings created especially for this show, “Poetry in the Sky” features expansive, luminous views of a season with its own unique tension of shadow and light. Newcomers to Howard’s work will notice that her winter skies have a special texture and depth, an effect she achieves through skilled use of a palette knife. The result is a series of paintings that span the many emotions of winter, a time when restlessness is eased by the promise of coming renewal.
“Poetry in the Sky” will be on display from Wednesday, January 3, 2024, through Sunday, February 18, 2024, at Locals Farm Market, 19929 Fisher Avenue, Poolesville, Md. This show is the tenth Riverworks “Artist in the House” exhibition to be featured on the second floor of the historic house at Locals.
