Door County Art News: Cohn Featured Artist at UU Gallery in November

At age 60, Baileys Harbor resident, Myrna L. Cohn, “tiptoed in to my first art class without any previous history of drawing or art.” From that experience, a successful professional woman emerged as a reflective and expressive painter. Featured as the Unitarian Universalist Gallery artist for the month of November, Cohn takes viewers through her evolutionary journey from tentative beginnings to award winning art.

In chronological order, her exhibit depicts the changes exploring a variety of media that includes charcoal, watercolor, pastels, oil and giclee. As an added feature, Myrna Cohn will provide a public talk on her process at the UU Gallery in Ephraim on Monday, November 10, from 10:30 am – noon. Coffee and light refreshments will be served.

Cohn will describe her art as the reflection of what she describes as an, “inner journey of my life and the people, places, dreams and emotions that stay within me. Photos, a piece of music or words that remind me of a meaningful moment, become the catalyst for my art.”

The public is invited to enjoy the exhibit at the UU Gallery, located at 10341 Hwy. 42 in Ephraim, on any Sunday following services from 11 am – 12:30 pm or during additional gallery hours on Mondays from 1 – 3 pm.
