In 2010 we introduce the 6th in a series of
annual fine art posters to celebrate Art In Your Eye.
|
This year our poster features the work of Batavia artist
Greta Bell |
I've always said that I
paint what I see.
Sometimes I create new stories
—imagining new space and form—
while other times I am reaching into the past
looking to evoke a memory.
By re-imagining the familiar I aim to make my
viewer rediscover their surroundings or
re-examine on oft overlooked corner of their
neighborhood.
The greatest reward for me is drawing an
emotional response from my viewer that reaches
beyond mere aesthetics into the heart.

Greta Bell is a self taught artist who lives in Batavia
with her family and is a resident artist at Water Street
Studios.
“Bellevue” is a painting of oils on canvas. The original
painting will be part of the permanent Batavia City Hall
Art Collection.
Bell co-curated the Birdland exhibition featuring 19
other artists as well as her memorial to the much loved
Batavian alderwoman, Linnea Miller.
Her work is featured in the June, 2010 Aurora Art Walk,
where she won the People's Choice Award. A solo show
featuring works about her hometown will open August 6,
2010 at
Allen + Pepa Gallery
in Batavia as a preview event for the Art In Your Eye
festival.
