Please join us at

 Roux & Cyr International Fine Art Gallery

for the opening of a two person show titled 

French Women

featuring oil paintings by

Susan Roux and Martine-Alison Chabert from France.

Wine and Cheese will be served on First Friday July 3 from 5:00 - 8:00.

The exhibit runs through July 28.

Susan Roux, teacher and owner of the gallery, unveils new works including dancing girls at the beach and figures in the garden. She focuses on light and atmosphere capturing movement and form with elegance and grace. Her girls evoke an air of freedom as transparent light glistens through their dresses. By working with impressionistic strokes, Roux’s light flickers and dances on canvas much like her models themselves.

Martine-Alison Chabert from France paints women in dreamlike fantasy lands. With bright color and scenes filled with light, she touches upon a sense of wonderment even childhood, that can stir up emotions from the past. Chabert paintings are a visual diary of her life, her emotions at the specific time when she is creating her drawings, her croquis, on canvas prior to painting. Her imagination runs freely yet she continues to create probable vegetation that leaves one wishing her plants really did exist. Chabert enjoys placing tiny little treasures to find for those who come take a closer look. 

Susan Roux and Martine-Alison Chabert have been very close friends for years. Two French women painting women led to the title of this exhibition, French Women. Unfortunately Martine-Alison Chabert will not be present at the exhibition as previously expected. Health issues are preventing her travel at this time. We wish her the best through her ordeal.

Roux & Cyr International Fine Art Gallery is Uniting the World Through Art.

Our studio exhibit, also opening on July 3, will be Susan Roux’s students. There will be paintings from beginners to more developed students on exhibit. Roux is very proud of her students and the paintings they achieve during her classes. Many of her students will be present at the opening.

Come see these two wonderful exhibits along with works from 25 artists. Enjoy wine and cheese while meeting many of the artists.

Creatively,

Susan

Je vous présente "Eloge de la paresse" qui illustre le carton d'invitation de l'exposition.

"... Eloge de la paresse - huile sur toile - 50 x 50 cm..."

Malheureusement, des ennuis de santé ne permettent pas à Martine-Alison d'être présente pour le vernissage comme il était convenu. Elle le regrette vivement...

Moi, Léo le toucan, j'aurais aimé l'accompagner et vous rencontrer !

Toutefois vous qui aurez la chance de vous y rendre, elle serait heureuse que vous puissiez lui envoyer quelques photos ! D'avance je vous remercie pour elle.

Laissez parler votre imagination, ajoutez de la couleur à votre vie...

Je vous dis, bye ❤︎."
