About the ArtistCrome Architecture is proud to present the work of Bay Area painter Georgette Osserman opening February 10 through April. Osserman, whose work has been featured at Marin M.O.C.A., Gallery Bergelli in Larkspur, and Sam The Butcher Contemporary Art in Ross creates large vibrant paintings that explore elements of visual movement, color relationships, and psychological impact. Many of the compositions contain collaged elements, like the pool painting, which uses pieces of rulers to create a diving board. Georgette loves visual puns, like the boat made from splotches of paint transferred by smearing her palette against the canvas. An opening reception for her show ‘Optical Delusions’ will be held Friday February 10th from 5pm to 8pm. To help spark conversation about the art, there will be a “Name That Painting” contest. Winners will receive a hand made Valentine created by Georgette. Prizes will be awarded at 7:30. Free refreshments will be served. Georgette explains her work: "I am drawn to art for its ability to act as a bridge between myself and others. In these complex, and trying times with so little under our control, it is a pure pleasure to create something with my own hands, something that has a beginning, middle, and definable end. People often ask: "How do you know a painting is finished?" I always wait till I can look at it and see nothing left to change."
Ms. Osserman works from her longtime Sausalito Studio. She has been painting and teaching, and delighting her collectors for more than 25 years. Please join us at Crome Architecture for her opening reception on February 10th for an evening of viewing and conversation. Here
