Bev Branch Will Be Guest Artist At Next SCAN Meeting
At the October 14 Society of Creative Arts of Newtown (SCAN), Beverly Branch will offer a demonstration in acrylics. Her subject will be a figure in a landscape.
The program is open to the public and will be at Newtown Meeting House (lower level), 31 Main Street.
Beverly Branch speaks of herself as a mover of color and manipulator of images in her paintings
âI give rise to the spirit and goodness of what I see as valuable on this fragile and extraordinary place we call earth,â she has said. She will share with attendees how digital photography has proven to be a great resource to her as an artist.
âThe potential for a great many variations on a theme is endless. For my demo âFigure in Landscape, â I will show you my photos and talk about composition, value, form and expression. My process is not new but the way I approach my subjects may be something you have never seen,â she said.
Ms Branch resides in Bethel. She graduated from Paier College of Art in 1973. She was the recipient of the Urban Arts Initiative Grant by the Connecticut Commission for the Arts in 1999.
She has completed commissioned work for Readerâs Digest Young Family book Series; Thumberlina and Nightingale in 2003 and is working on Proud Little Peacock for Readerâs Digest Kids series Little Animal Adventures.
