Artist Reception For Archelle “Buttons” Wolst

Work by Archelle “Buttons” Wolst. Submitted.

The work of Door County still life and portrait painter Archelle “Buttons” Wolst will be featured in the Door County Community Foundation’s lobby gallery. A reception for the exhibit will be held Feb. 16, 4:30-6 pm. 

Wolst’s work is defined by simple shapes and strong compositions. For this show, she has painted several friends who have contributed greatly to Door County, as well as her favorite flowers: peonies and sunflowers. 

“What I love about painting, whatever the medium, is the surprise of the outcome,” Wolst said. “I might start with an idea and then, as the painting progresses, things come about that I hadn’t an inkling of when I started.”

Wolst will donate all profits from the exhibit to the Door County Community Foundation.

The Community Foundation is located at 222 N 3rd Ave. in Sturgeon Bay.
