Opening Reception of Exhibit and Studio H Gallery and Workshop
Saturday, October 17, 2009, 6:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m.
Visitors to the exhibition will find a selection of recent oil paintings, painted from life, including portraits, nudes, still lifes and landscapes. The exhibition highlights Thibodeaux's specialty: portraits. She paints her subjects from life using the "alla prima" technique, in which paint is applied directly to the canvas and worked wet in wet. "Portraits and Landscapes in Oil" features the recent works of this New Orleans native who has recently made Capitol Hill her home.
Studio H is located in the burgeoning and energetic H street corridor on the North end of Capitol Hill. This vital urban energy serves as a backdrop and a source of inspiration for Studio H. Founded by Washington, DC native and Capitol Hill resident Philip Hutinet, Studio H Gallery and Workshop will serve DC residents through interdisciplinary artistic, cultural and social events. The gallery at Studio H will feature monthly art exhibits from local artists and expand to show national and international artists from the mid-Atlantic region, Europe and Latin America. Studio H Gallery and Workshop will present lecture series open to the public at no cost. As a working space, Studio H also provides various services including website design, custom illustrations, portrait paintings and public murals.
