SCOTT BENNETT

September 13th through October 11, 2025

Opening Reception: 

Saturday Sept. 13th, 6 to 9 pm

Join us Saturday, September 13th, 2025, from 6 to 9 pm for the opening reception of works by Elizabeth Snelling and Scott Bennett, our first exhibit, this Fall!

Two painters who appear to equally value color, arrive at paintings with different subject matter and similar emotional tones.

All welcome to attend! Refreshments will be available. Hope you can make it!

"I like the adventure of making paintings. I like paint in all its glorious variation: thick, thin, smooth, gritty, opaque, translucent, glossy, matte. Material stuff that I can manipulate directly on a surface. Making art takes me to places nothing else does. It satisfies me like nothing else does. While I am a landscape painter at heart, I need the open-ended-ness of a non-objective painter. Color and authenticity of feeling comes first." - Scott Bennett

"Color is the first thing you notice about my figure, still life, and
landscape paintings. I paint and draw the details of life, the places I live and have lived:
rooms, rugs, patterns, and furniture are interpreted over and over again. Visually democratic, I
paint landscapes like interiors and interiors like landscapes. The backyard that I plant and tend is just as compelling as the drama of Nova Scotia vastness. Pets and people populate my work and are equally expressive, awkward and casual." -Elizabeth Snelling
