February 2024 Artist of the Month
“Above and Below”
Karen Peacock describes herself as “allergic to minimalism” and her lives by the motto “more is more.” Her mixed media skyscapes on canvas feature layers of paint, paper, cloth and other ephemera. Her work is complemented by the abstracted photographs of water on metal by Mary Weiss-Waldhorn. Together these artists give us a unique perspective on the world above and below.
