'Capturing The Beauty And Romance Of Coastal New England— recent watercolors and oils by Kristina N Occhino Nov 13 • Dec 4

  On Saturday, November 13th, from 6-8pm, True Grit Art Gallery will host an opening reception for a solo art exhibit entitled ‘Capturing The Beauty And Romance Of Coastal New England— Recent Watercolors And Oils by Kristina N Occhino’. The gallery invites the public to come and view Kristina’s latest watercolor and oil paintings, enjoy complimentary adult refreshments, and support an extremely talented local artist.  This event is free and open to everyone.
   For this exhibition, Attleboro artist Kristina Occhino has selected to exhibit seascape, landscape and marine art scenes from around New England. Her aim is to use light, color and careful rendering to capture the atmosphere and romance of the areas she paints. Kristina really enjoys painting skies and water. She has portrayed skies and bodies of water that are quiet and others that are dramatic. Kristina finds painting the movement and reflective quality of water both challenging and fun.“I hope the viewer will feel transformed and uplifted by my work,” she says.
    Kristina N Occhino holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Studio Art from Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, NY and a Masters in Art Education from Rhode Island School of Design. Her work has been accepted into several national and international exhibitions. She is a Signature member of the Northeast Watercolor Society and the Rhode Island Watercolor Society. Kristina also hold Associate memberships in the New England Watercolor Society and the American Watercolor Society.
   ‘Capturing The Beauty And Romance Of Coastal New England’ runs from its opening night through December 4th. True Grit Art Gallery is located at 38 Center St in Middleboro, MA. Regular gallery hours are Tues 11-4, Wed thru Fri 10-5, and Sat 10-3.
