1 Calendar of Events September 7, October 5, 2018 Flower meets Line: Cathy Schoenberg & Jo Moniz WaterWorks Gallery 315 Argyle Ave Ruth Offen, ruth@waterworksgallery.com Free to the Public September 7 - October 5, 2018 â Cathy Schoenberg Floral Oil paintings Jo Moniz - Geometric encaustic paintings San Juan Island Chamber of Commerce 165 First Street South chamberinfo@sanjuanisland.org These artists share a richly hued color palette: Cathy in oil painting and Jo in encaustic painting. Cathy s journey to her present floral based work is a very circuitous route, filled with lots of patterning, female figures, dancing figures and cats. Her brilliantly colored paintings are scaled with larger floral shapes belonging to many seemingly familiar flowers. Jo s architecturally-oriented encaustic paintings are meditations in quiet. Seemingly simplified landscapes of doorways, archways and buildings, her paintings are geometric in nature without feeling cold and formulaic. Reception for the artists: Friday September 7th 4-7pm. Please join us on Saturday, â September 8th 11-1pm for an informal artist talk and show walk-through. September 29, 2018 The is every Saturday, April through October, from Page 1/7
