DCAL Features “Off the Wall” Exhibit

“Autumn Fantasy,” watercolor, by Jane Barnard.

The Door County Art League will present “Off the Wall,” an art on easels exhibit at the Sister Bay Village Hall, beginning with a reception from 4 – 6 pm on Friday, July 23. The show will continue Saturday, 10 am – 4 pm, and Sunday, 10 am – 3 pm. All artwork will be for sale.

The Gallery of the Door County Art League featured artists for the week of July 25 are Marcia Nickols, who works in water-based oils and watercolor, and Jane Barnard, a landscape painter and teacher.

Nickols considers herself an impressionist because of her love of color and moment. “If it does not move me, I do not paint it,” she said.

Barnard’s paintings present a loose, fresh expressionistic style. “I would rather dare to push a bold landscape and have it fail than present a technically perfect but timid painting,” she said.

The Door County Art League is comprised of painters, sculptors, jewelers, potters, photographers, woodworkers, fabric artists, and more. All types of original art produced by members are on display and available for sale at the gallery, located in the Top of the Hill Shops, Highway 42 and County F on Spring Road in Fish Creek. Business hours are 10 am – 5 pm daily, and a reception is planned for the fourth Saturday of each month, 3 – 5 pm, throughout the season.
