Nora Venturelli at Riverside Arts Center


"Figuratively Speaking: interpretations of the human form" opens at Riverside Arts Center, Friday, May 7 and runs through May 28. WSG artist Nora Venturelli has this spectacular piece on display. Vice Versa No. 25 is from a current figurative body of work and the development of this body has been incredible to watch. You can see the forms coming into view as they are sketched with the brush, modeled a bit and, finally, come to life in the foreground.

Nora is a virtuoso painter, studying landscape, still life and the figure with equal fervor. This piece should be in a museum!
