Catherine Skowron
December Art Exhibit
Catherine Skowron has been an artist and educator on the outer Cape since 1969 when after her first view of the dunes and Provincetown beyond she knew this was the place for her. “Skowron’s oil painting…provides viewers with originally interpreted Cape Cod themes that transcend the genre. Her landscapes reflect the naturalist in her soul—she knows these dunes and paths intimately and revels in bringing people into her own special places.” Provincetown Banner 1/30/2014.
She has studied art in France and Italy and on Cape Cod with Carol Whorf Westcott, Sal DelDeo and Elizabeth Pratt. Her credentials include an MA in Education from Goddard College. Her writings on critical and creative thinking and alternative assessment have been included in numerous books and manuscripts for educators.
Catherine has exhibited in a variety of venues in both open and juried shows, and her works are in private collections throughout the US, Canada and Europe. In 2015 Skowron received an award from the Edward Hopper House Art Center in Nyack, NY for works included in “After Hopper” events sponsored by Addison Gallery, Orleans, MA. She is represented by Cortile Gallery, Provincetown.

LOOKING BACK
Nancy Berlin is exhibiting some of her small works from a series in our exhibit case in the periodical room at the Truro Public Library until mid-December.

"My work has always been about change. In this series I am looking at my photographs taken over the years. I reappraise the images and paint over them to reflect new ways of considering relationships and environments from the perspective of who I am and what the world is at this moment"
