Capturing the often lost moments of simplicity in between life’s larger moments is the overall theme of Teresa Rodrigues Brownell’s latest show, Moments In Between.
Teresa’s expressive paintings will bring her audience face to face with those candid moments lost in the hurried pace of everyday life.
“My paintings are visual thoughts; I take an idea, a feeling, a memory or an experience and express it through this medium. Moments in Between is a collection of seemingly uneventful glimpses into everyday life that intrigued me.”
Born on the island of Terceira in the Azores, Teresa moved to Toronto as a child and began painting more than 15 years ago.
A full time artist now, she splits her time between her home studio and The Bartlett Gallery in the Alton Mill where she is the director.
Teresa began showing over 10 years ago and her work has been featured in shows across Ontario. Her awards have included the People’s Choice at the 125th Birthday Celebration in Shelburne. Teresa’s design was also chosen for the new flag representing the township of Amaranth. Her work is in private collections across Canada and the United States.
Moments In Between opens on Oct. 9 and runs until Nov. 3. The show’s opening teception takes place on Oct. 19, from 1 to 4pm with refreshments.
The Bartlett Gallery, is located at 1402 Queen St. W., Alton, south of Orangeville (call 519-940-0199). For more information contact Teresa Waldner at 519-278-6136 or icurateart@gmail.com
