Adele Grodstein’s exhibit at the Ridgewood Public Library features oil paintings of scenes in Ridgewood as well as landscapes from travels, still lifes and even a portrait. The show is full of life and vivid color.
“Movement is always there – the struggle to keep everything in position for the brushstroke balancing the knowledge that when I look up again, the whole view will have changed slightly,” said Grodstein.
“Big Sky (Going to the Sun Road)” is a large painting from a family trip to Glacier National Park.
“I was very excited about the photo I took and wanted it to be a painting. Glacier National Park is so beautiful, a disappearing landscape,” she noted.
Ridgewood’s Duck Pond scene was painted in February and is called “No Skating.”
