Clay and Paper Gallery of Art presents “Florida Feathers”
Oil Paintings by Deborah Cofer
Clay and Paper, Gallery of Art presents “Florida Feathers”, Friday, June 13 – August 3, 2014. “Florida Feathers” features new oil paintings depicting florida birds by Deborah Cofer. Deborah’s delightful personality and painting seems to be one and the same. Her birds are painted in her loose but not so loose painterly style that breaths so much life into each piece.
Deborah statement: “I love color and line! My goal in every piece is to try to capture life. I do this by detailed foundational study and then allowing life and energy to explode through lines and color. In every detail and every edge I desire to focus on the moving and breathing aspects of living things. I try to capture the moment. I am also fascinated by my surroundings. Living in a coastal community (Tarpon Springs) affords me limitless subject matter.”
An opening reception will be held during the Dunedin Wine/Art Walk for “Florida Feathers” Friday June 13, 2014 from 5:30 pm to 8:30 pm. Deborah will be present to talk about her artwork during the reception.
