Karen Tusinski One-Artist Show

Opening Reception: Saturday, December 7th, 2 – 4 PM
An exhibition of oil, acrylic and mixed media paintings by artist Karen Tusinski will open in the Marguerite Pearson Room of the Rockport Art Association & Museum (RAA&M) on Saturday, December 7th with an artist’s reception from 2 – 4 PM. The exhibition will be on view Saturday, December 7 – Tuesday, December 31.
Karen Tusinski subscribes to the natural contrast found in our world. Geometric and organic form play together in each piece, combining in an energized abstraction. Common themes include bright poppies in a variety of color schemes, pebble strewn beaches with tranquil seas, and reoccurring circular patterns in both abstracts and expressive still lifes. Tusinski’s work offers pleasing tonal relationships through common motifs and patterns inspired by nature. Her keen observation of the seemingly ordinary allows the viewer a new lens to hold against everyday images.
Karen Tusinski is the owner of the Tusinski Gallery in Rockport and is an artist member of the Rockport Art Association & Museum and the Newburyport Art Association. She received a B.F.A. in Painting from Montserrat College of Art in 1998 and attended Montserrat’s Viterbo, Italy Summer Program. Tusinski is a featured artist at Jules Place in Boston and also exhibits her artwork in numerous galleries throughout the country.
