SUMMARY:Opening Reception for "In Sunlight"
DESCRIPTION:Join us in celebration of the works by Joreen Benbenek\, on display October 5 – November 6\, 2025 at the Dolphin Gallery\, located in the Hingham Library. Opening Reception: Thursday\, October 9\, 5:30-7:00 pm \n\n\n\nArtist Statement: Capturing fleeting moments of majesty and beauty of the illuminated landscape have been a lifelong motivation and inspiration for me. I strive to capture in my landscape paintings not only a unique sense of place but also the emotional experience of the illusive and ever- changing effects of light that can only be experienced by the direct observation of nature. I can’t remember a time when I was not compelled to create art. As a child\, my greatest joy and love was sketching\, painting and experimenting with different art mediums\, trying to capture the essence of the world around me. I pursued my passion in college\, earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting\, which I supplemented with training from Boston area painters whose work I admired\, including Alfred Chadbourn\, Charles Sovek\, and painting master\, Michael Keane. My chosen medium has always been oils\, whether working on location “en plein air”\, observing nature firsthand\, or doing larger work from on location studies in my studio\, my goal and motivation is always the same\, to capture the glorious and fleeting dramatic moments of light and shadow on landscapes and cityscapes. I enhance and revise my color values\, shapes and tones until my painting reflects the initial impact and mood of the scene in front of me. I want the viewer to feel as if they can walk into my paintings\, stand beside me and experience the same joy and wonder at the beauty of our natural world. I am inspired daily to capture with paint and canvas the beauty\, drama and luminosity of the world around me.
