The first time that I saw Francene Christianson’s paintings, I was intrigued. Rather than just being paintings of a place or thing, the texture and color of Christianson’s art elicits an emotional response from the viewer.
Francene creates her art from photos that she takes both at home and while she is traveling. She uses those photos as the setting for her art and infuses her feelings into the works as she paints. I highly recommend that you see these paintings up close and get their full emotional effect.
We will have an opening reception for Francene’s new show, Passing Views: Paintings by Francene Christianson, on Saturday, June 2, from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. at Abode Gallery in Stockholm, Wisconsin. A regular member of the gallery, her additional works for the show will be on display through June 30. Stop in and see them. You’ll be glad you did.
