Starting in November, we will be displaying oil paintings by Rob MacKenzie. Rob works alla prima in both plein air and studio, using oil on panels and canvas, and sketching in watercolor. His inspirations are the fresh, natural light of Corot’s field studies, Cezanne’s sense of solidity and place, and Van Gogh’s vibrant color. He admires the field studies of Clyde Aspevig and Tom Thomson. Largely self-trained while working as a surgeon and a hospital administrator, he has studied with Doug Braithwaite of Park City, Utah, Jeanne Mackenzie of Fort Collins, Colorado, and Terry Plater of Ithaca, New York.
There will be an Artists’s Reception at the library on Tuesday, November 12 at 7pm.
