Musings in Color

This event took place on March 3, 2017. See upcoming events in Vero Beach.

Where: 1470 Highland Avenue, Melbourne, FL, United States

Opening on February 28 at Fifth Avenue Art Gallery, Musings in Color will feature the work of artist Witha Lacuesta. Witha is a member of Fifth Avenue Art Gallery and has been painting for many years. She has studied in Germany and the US.

This exhibit will consist of two series. The first, Cypress Tree series, was inspired by a recent excursion to the Blue Cypress Conservation area which serves as headwaters for St. Johns River. The beauty of these century old trees was deeply moving. Having withstood various weather extremes, they stand for persistence, resilience, and grace. They also inspire us to strive for the same attributes when facing adversity or solitude.

In contrast, my second series entitled 'Dancers' conveys a different mood through the serendipitous use of color and shapes as expressed in dynamic abstract watercolors.

“I would like my viewers to find a pleasant sanctuary in my paintings where they can quietly reflect and discover a sense of peace.” – Witha Lacuesta

There will be a First Friday Opening on March 3, from 5:30 pm through 8:30 pm. The exhibit will run from February 28 through April 1. All events are free and open to the public.

Fifth Avenue Art Gallery is located in the Eau Gallie Art District in Melbourne, FL.
