MILFORD, PA — The ARTery Gallery’s September exhibit, which opens on Thursday, September 12, is titled “Brush and Knife: Vibrant Visions in Oil and Acrylic.” An artists’ reception will be held 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Saturday, September 14 at the gallery.
The exhibit features painters Laura Lippay and Barbara Alice Moir. Their choice of painting tools and a variety of paint thicknesses make this show unique, a spokesperson said. “While many oil painters prefer to work either with brushes or with painting knives, Lippay and Moir seem comfortable using both styles of painting, affording them a wide range of textures and expressions on the canvas.”

Barbara Alice Moir became an artist the day she first borrowed her mother’s oil paints for a high school project at Eldred Central School in Eldred, NY back in the 1960s. From then on, Moir continued to paint and study art on her own even though she chose music teaching as her full-time occupation.

Laura Lippay’s work inspires introspection and contemplation alongside playfulness, romanticism and sometimes even fortitude, the gallery notes.
The Lippay-Moir exhibit will be on display through Monday, October 7.
The ARTery Gallery is located at 210 Broad St.
