Wallflowers Exhibit at Northwell Health, Lake Success through April 28

Wallflowers Exhibit at Northwell Health, Lake Success
October 16, 2018 – April 28, 2019
Closing Reception April 28, 3-5 pm

This exhibit features most of the works from the Wallflowers Exhibit which was on view in the galleries at Elderfields in September 2018. The exhibit focuses on the beauty of flowers from big lush peonies and perfect roses to the smallest snowdrops and dandelions, few things evoke more memories or encompass more symbolism. We long for the first flowers of spring in our gardens and they commemorate special occasions and holidays throughout the year. Artists depicted rolling meadows, formal gardens, a single bud in a vase or enough to fill a room.

The Art Guild and Northwell Health invite the public to the closing reception for the Wallflowers Exhibition on Sunday, April 28, from 3:00-5:00 pm at Northwell Health’s new Center Street Hallway of the Center for Advanced Medicine, 450 Lakeville Road, Lake Success, NY. The reception is free and open to the public. The exhibit, on view since October 16, 2018, will close on April 28.

Jacqueline Kamin: Floral Workshop
Four-Days: June 13-16, 2019, 10:00am – 4:30pm
$650 Members/$685 Non-members
Deposits now being taken

Demo on Wednesday, June 12, included in tuition**

Students will explore the basics of setting up a poetic still life, with an emphasis on the fleeting beauty of flowers. This will encourage a bold, direct application of paint to capture essential beauty. We will discuss the importance of finding an abstract, visual idea in the set up that is all- important for conveying this beauty to the viewer. Students will experiment with the lush quality of oil paint to find the inherent beauty of thick, opaque lights contrasting with thin, transparent darks. This exploration will help students find their own unique voice.

Flowers will be provided, but students are encouraged to bring any still life objects or fruit they would like to paint as well.

**Please note: Jacqueline will be doing a Demo on the Floral Still Life, Wednesday, June 12, 6-8 pm. The demo is included in workshop tuition. To register for the demo ONLY, please click here.


Jacqueline Kamin’s illustrious career was nurtured at the Corcoran Museum School and later at the Sculpture Studio and the Art Students League in New York.

Her work was included in several internationally-known art expositions held in Hong Kong and New York City as well as the National Museum for Women Artists in her home town, Washington, D.C.
