An exhibition of 25 Italy paintings by Heidi Arneson opened October 12 at the Affinity Plus Federal Credit Union in St. Paul.
Arneson recently traveled throughout Italy, painting en plein air the hills, towns, mountains and lakes of that enchanting, light-filled country. Arneson’s jewel-like colors and vigorous brushwork capture the ambiance of Italy. Her forms pulsate with life and her colors evoke the searing heat of Italian summers. The rich surface texture and high color contrast enhance the bold dynamic movement in these works. All of these formal qualities add up to a stunning portrayal of energy and light on canvas.
The show will be at Affinity Plus on University Avenue through November, then it will go to Affinity Plus in St. Paul through January 2013.
