Decades of Work

The Gallery at Door Peninsula Winery is pleased to present the work of Lynn Gilchrist in a solo exhibit on the two floors of its central rotunda from April 24 to Aug. 14. The opening reception will be April 26, 4:30 – 7 pm with Door Peninsula wines and Bistro 42 appetizers featured.

Gilchrist lives and works in Sturgeon Bay. She is in love with Door County – its beauty, its people, its hidden wonders, its essence…and it shows, in some way, in almost every painting she does.

Gilchrist said, “I go to nature for contemplation, recreation, enrichment, and wonder. Being able to run outdoors and to paint outdoors in Door County is a great joy, with Lake Michigan, the fields and woods all around.”

The exhibit features work from every decade of Gilchrist’s expansive career and interests which means that in the midst of landscapes and nature studies, you’ll find dogs watching TV, various self-portraits, girlfriends and just bright, whimsical paintings (including pastels) meant to be fun and engaging.

Gilchrist’s work is represented by Woodwalk Gallery, which has coordinated this exhibit for the Gallery at Door Peninsula Winery. The exhibit is open 9 am – 5 pm daily in April and 9 am – 9 pm throughout the summer. The Winery is located in Carlsville, between Sturgeon Bay and Egg Harbor on Highway 42.
