Sandy Oppenheimer, a self-taught artist who paints with paper in an intuitive and playful manner, will exhibit her artwork featuring birds.
“My interest in birds is not a new thing. In my early 30’s, I had a profound experience with one that grew into a series called ‘Letting Go.’ After reading ‘The Genius of Birds’ and hanging a bird feeder outside the dining room window, my love and respect of the avian world grew even more. Claude Monet once said, ‘I would like to paint the way a bird sings.’ Me too! I’d also like to fly!”
— Sandy Oppenheimer
