"As I see it", the paintings of Kathleen Ann Dugan in the Clemens Gallery

"As I See It", a collection of paintings by local artist Kathleen Ann Dugan will be on display in the Hingham Public Library's Clemens Gallery through September 2, 2010 , during regular library hours.  The public is invited to attend an artist's reception for Kathleen on Monday evening, August 2 from  7:00 to 8:30 pm to in the gallery.
 
Kathleen, the oldest girl in a family of 9 siblings, had always delighted in the process of artistic expression but it was not until the year 2001 that she made a bold decision to leave long term employment in the financial sector and throw herself into the world of art full time. 


Kathleen formed her own company, Wonders On Walls, and proceeded to beautify Heather at Newportthe homes of many clients in the South Shore and beyond with breathtaking murals and skillful decorative finishes on walls, furniture and floor cloths.  Her company is still thriving today.


Ms. Dugan has a studio in the E.T. Wright Building in Rockland Ma.  When she is not out on a job in a client's home, she can usually be found painting at her easel in her studio.


Kathleen works primarily with acrylics. Although she paints landscapes and still life, her own personal favorite works are portraits engaged in a fantasy setting. She is usually inspired by a focal interest in a captivating photograph.  She may use elements from various photographs, using her vivid imagination to combine her sources into one final, arresting painting.
 
Kathleen states, "The hours spent painting fly by in a way that constantly amazes me.  I find it a continual and satisfying challenge transforming a vision of my mind's eye onto canvas in a manner that captivates a new beholder with the same beauty that first inspired me."
 
Kathleen is Co-President of the 4th Floor Artist Inc., Rockland Ma. As such, she has been very involved with the opening of the Rockland Art Center at the Premium Art Outlet, also in Rockland .  She is a member of the Duxbury Art Association, North River Arts Society and South Shore Art Center , as well as a member of the Russell Gallery and Plymouth Art Guild, Plymouth Ma.

Visit Kathleen's website for more about her work.
