Phyllis Feld Solo Show: "The Way of Space in the Landscape "

"Wild Flowers Abound", Phyllis Feld

North Shore Arts Association presents one of Cape Ann's extraordinary landscape artists, Phyllis Feld, in her exciting new Solo Show, "The Way of Space in The Landscape". Opening day is September 3, and the show runs through September 26. All are invited to a "Meet the Artist" Reception on Sunday, September 20, from 2-4 p.m. Free and open to the public.

While she often paints beautifully arranged still life works, landscape painting is Phyllis Feld's artistic passion. She says, "I love working in the landscape, working 'en plein air'. It helps me make a visual connection. My space planning and interior design experience is the stimulus of my deep attraction to geometric form as nature creates it." Feld will often spend much time exploring in a chosen terrain until she finds an inspiring natural configuration. Her excitement about spatial relations, form and color radiates from her canvases. This is an artist whose work is not to be missed. A graduate of Pratt Institute, Feld is a Space Planner/Interior Designer who designed offices and commercial interiors for seventeen years. She began her studies at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts with still life painting, and later becoming drawn to plein air painting while traveling in France, Italy, and Outer Cape Cod.
She is also a member of the Newton, Concord and North Shore Arts Associations, and an associate member of the Rockport Art Association. She has exhibited extensively, having received Best of Show, Third Place and several Honorable Mentions, and her work resides in many private collections.
