From Sept 10th – October 25th, local painter Deborah Paolantonio, will have her work displayed in the Bixby Library Community Room, the exhibit is titled “Beauty of the Sacred”.

Artist statement:

I was fortunate to have spent my childhood in a family that appreciates music, art and the beauty of nature.

Like many others, I find beauty stirs in me a sense of awe and longing. Whether it is a graceful turning of a flower petal or the magnificence of a giant oak tree, or perhaps an infant’s sleepy eyes, draws me to a sacred place that feels like home. And this is what I paint, to try capture that feeling and in turn share it with others.

I work in oils, pastels and mixed media. My subjects are still lifes, landscapes, wildlife and an occasional portrait of family members.

My art is also displayed on my Facebook page as: Deborah Boutilier Paolantonio
