Opening Reception on Thursday September 19, 4:30-6:00pm at Pegasus Gallery.

Rosemary Cotnoir’s evocative landscape paintings emphasize abstract pattern, form, and color. Her improvisational process of painting overlays organic applications of acrylic with controlled and descriptive mark making. Cotnoir’s works portray aerial and similarly unexpected perspectives of coastlines, marshes, forests and rivers. These birds-eye views provide intriguing map-like vantage points that seem to expand far beyond their open compositions. The play of figure-ground and shifting relationships appears to represent both alien topographies and spatially familiar locations.
