RiverWinds Gallery presents A Show of Ireland: Pastel Impressions by Gayle Clark Fedigan. The artist uses her rich pastels and talent to transport to the rocky shores and rolling hills of Ireland. The show opens on Beacon Second Saturday March 8, and runs through April 6. The artist reception will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday, March 8.

“A passion to paint is a gift from God requiring contemplation and long hours of labor,” Fedigan said. “I celebrate creation. Every painting I do is always going to be my best: my prayer of thanks.”

Fedigan teaches pastel painting at Mount St. Mary College, Desmond Campus, Newburgh. She also teaches at the Burren school of Art in Lisdoonvarna, Ireland.
