Art Opening Reception: Caryn King – Floral Still Life Paintings

Date: 01/29/2023
Time: 4:00 pm-6:00 pm


Floral still life paintings by Caryn King will be on display at the Library from January 28 through February 28. A resident of Southfield, MA, King is a narrative painter who began her artistic career as a sculptor working with clay. As one might expect from a former clay artist, texture is very important to her paintings, which range from realism to the layered brushwork and inventiveness of expressionism. King’s current subject matter is taken from the natural world – plants, flowers, trees, and landscapes. She earned her BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art and is represented by galleries in Dorset and Brattleboro, Vermont. She has had numerous solo and group shows, and her work can be found in collections in the United States, Canada, France, and Australia.

Please join us for a reception for the artist on Sunday, January 29, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m., graciously hosted by the Library Associates.
