Art Reception-Kathleen Robbins@York Public Library

Artist Kathleen Robbins will speak about her work which is currently on exhibit on the main level of the Library. This body of work represents a shift in focus from plein air painting to studio work where an abstract sensibility to the landscape and still life is taking shape. Many of the paintings in this show are an interpretation of a walk taken last February through the Marginal Way in Ogunquit. Also present in this show is a group of still life and plein air paintings of the seacoast area painted over the past few years. Kathleen Robbins’ art has received many awards over the years and her work has been exhibited in many galleries in the New England area. She has been represented in group shows for many years at Nahcotta Gallery of Portsmouth, N.H. The artist talk and reception will take place on Thursday, August 2, from 5-6:30 p.m. and the exhibit will be on display until September 28.
