Reception: Thursday June 5, 2008 6-8 PM

Press Release

Stacy Cosgrove’s paintings have the luminosity of stained-glass windows. It is as if she has captured the sun’s rays within the colors of her rainbow palette. Emerald green and cerulean dominate her landscape, evoking a sense of romanticism and magic. The dewy sheen is particularly surprising considering Cosgrove paints on wood surfaces.

Perhaps it is in part because she paints on a surface so closely aligned to nature that Cosgrove leans toward subject matters relating to the beauty of the great outdoors. With tenderness she paints blades of grass into the grains of the wood. Flowing over the rings and lines in the wood, water depictions retain a motion of fluidity, a rhythmic flow. Her haunting portrait of the moon dramatically plays up light and dark. At 48” by 48”, the paintings’ sizes alone make them stand out. They are large enough to make the viewer feel as if they have the ability to step right into the painting and enter a world of wonder and beauty.
