The Opening Reception will take place Sunday, June 7, 4:00-6:00 p.m. at The Gallery at Briarwood, 65 Briarwood Circle, Worcester. Guests will have an opportunity to meet Ms. Parfanova and her student artists. The reception is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.
This exhibit is aimed to celebrate art, life and childhood. The artists in this show vary in age from 6 to 16 years young.They come to Attic Art Studio to learn the principles of representational art. However, there is always room for experimentation, which allows the students to express their unique vision. Children love to communicate through art and do it with pleasure and excitement.
Ms. Parfanova reflected, “The students` projects vacillate easily between realism and imagination. The works vary as to the subject-matter, palette and style. At the same time, they translate into the visual form the basic joys granted to all of us – the daily contact with nature and the feeling ofbeing alive. Children are true artists who have their eyes open and are happy to share their life experiences, a measure of cheerfulness, of love and of poesy through the artworks. “
Briarwood is a non-profit senior living community that includes Independent Living cottages & apartments, Assistance in Living services, and Knollwood Nursing Center for skilled nursing & rehabilitation services.
