The Foundation invited 3 prominent local Artists,
Charles Cushing, Beth Palser, and Dane Tilghman to exhibit their paintings
for this extravagant evening. The Grand Opening benefited the Elkins Estate,
to help continue to restore and preserve the historic architecture and grounds.
This 42 acre oasis, designed by renowned architect Horace Trumbauer in 1896,
was the country sanctuary of Phildephia entrepreneur William Elkins. The
Estate is now under the ownership of the Land Conservancy of Elkins Park.

Received the Blue Ribbon Award for Excellence
for overall body of work in Watercolors
Lansdale Festival of the Arts, Lansdale, PA, 2009
|
| LANSDALE - At the Lansdale Festival of the
Arts on Saturday, August 29, 2009, a trio of artists occupied a corner of
the gymnasium at Penndale Middle School, each having just won a blue ribbon.
That the three artists are friends only made the corner that much brighter.
Sandy Askey-Adams won for her pastel painting Nature's
Quietude. A working artist all her life, Askey-Adams has won many awards,
but only in the past two years, she says, has earned her the recognition
she'd hoped for early in her career.
Chester County painter Beth Palser shared part
of her corner with friend and fellow artist Steve Oliver. Both have distinct
styles - she uses watercolors in a way that rejuvenates the quotidian world.
Whether it's bushels of apples, two empty beach chairs, or a field of hot
air ballons rising and falling, Palser's paintings are alive; they have
textures and breathe light. Stare too long at her Key West sunsets you might
forget the one outside your window.
It's no wonder Palser won first-place for overall presentation.
Oliver, too, has an eye for light
and color. Employing acrylics, ink and colored pencils, his wildlife and
nature paintings draw you into a world both strange and familiar. His paintings
inspired by the six weeks he spent last year in Canada observing the George
River caribou migration are breathtaking.

The Catharine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club is pleased that Beth Palser's "A
Bushel and a Peck" watercolor painting, has been accepted into its 112th
Annual Open Exhibition at the National Arts Club, 15 Gramercy South, New
York, New York 10003. The Catharine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club, one of the
oldest women's art clubs in the country was founded in 1896 in honor of
Miss Wolfe, a prominent New York philanthropist and art collector. She was
the only woman among the 106 founders of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The club's home is the historic Grace Church on Broadway in New York City.
The club's original function was to provide aid and counsel to women art
students who found life in New York a struggle. In the 1950's the club's
focus shifted to serving women artists of professional standing. Today the
board meets monthly at the Grace Church Parish House. It organizes exhibitions,
plans for lectures, and other activities where the membership can meet and
share ideas. Today's members are represented in museums, galleries, and
prestigious art collections all over the world.

"Fractionalism©"
gives art a graphic, realistic feel
Beth A. Palser said she brings "fractionalism©"
to the Central Pennsylvania Festival of Arts with her painting of nature
from photographs.
Palser paints everything from landscapes to seascapes to urban scenes using
watercolors. She takes photographs from nature and uses them as reference
for her subject matter.
Her paintings are done in a style she terms as "fractionalism©."
This is her own unique style that gives the paintings a realistic feel.
"Painting in this style lets me use bright colors and chopped linear brush
strokes, which provide movement, depth and a sense of emotion in my art,"
Palser said.
|
Palser said she gets inspiration from the world around her and always tries
to make her work as unique as possible.
"Whether it's the texture of the peeling bark on a tree, the light casting
a shadow through a window or the clouds rolling over the hills on a sunny
morning, in all these things I feel the urge to pick up my brush and paint
a picture," she said.
Palser, a professional artist for 18 years, makes her home in Chester County,
Pa. This will be her first year at the Art Festival. Her work is exhibited
and sold at juried and invitational shows throughout the Mid-Atlantic. |

BETH PALSER
Beth Palser is an award-winning watercolor artist
from Oxford, Pennsylvania. "I present a unique style of painting that brings
together realism with graphic undertones," said Palser.
"I developed my own individual style, called Fractionalism©,
taking realism to a different level by enhancing the reality of a scene
through the use of color and chopped linear brush strokes, which provide
movement, depth, and a sense of emotion. Texture, contrast, and vibrant
color are other elements." This will be her 18th year exhibiting with the
Rittenhouse Square Fine Art Show. "This is the best outdoor venue to display
original artwork," said Palser. "In a relaxed atmosphere, customers get
to meet the artists up close and personal and view a variety of art to please
their inner soul, and hopefully they will have made purchases."
