Cappaert to Demo Cold Wax Painting Sept. 4

“Dancing Winds” by Ginnie Cappaert.

Edgewood Orchard Galleries will host an Exhibit VI opening reception on Sept. 3, 4 – 7 pm. The exhibit features the artwork of painters Ginnie Cappaert, Susan Hale and Jonathan Wilde, and jeweler Deborah Bushinski. The artists will speak about their artwork at 5 pm in the gallery courtyard. Wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served and the public is welcome.

“Hollyhock Cottage” by Susan Hale.

Cappaert will demonstrate her oil and cold wax painting techniques in the gallery courtyard on Sept. 4, 1 – 3 pm. Cappaert concentrates on color, texture, line and shape when creating her minimalist landscape paintings. She uses a process of applying paint in many layers, then scraping and gouging to create a subtle, quiet effect to each of her oil paintings.

Hale’s paintings are a reflection of her personality, cheerful and bright. Her paintings include the vibrant use of color along with a sense of optimism.

Wilde captures rural Wisconsin landscapes and wildlife in his diverse paintings. Wilde’s extensive knowledge of birds and nature is apparent in his exquisite and accurate oil paintings.

“Ancient Collection Necklace” by Deborah Bushinski.

Bushinski’s jewelry showcases the rugged beauty of earthy designs crafted for everyday wear. Her collection focuses on texture, color and composition. Bushinski often uses salvaged birch bark, reclaimed copper and semi-precious stones.

Exhibit VI will be displayed through Sept. 21. Edgewood Orchard Galleries is located at 4140 Peninsula Players Road, midway between Egg Harbor and Fish Creek. For more information, call 920.868.3579 or visit edgewoodorchard.com.
