RiverWinds Gallery presents Fired Up — porcelain painting by Paola Bari. With minute brush strokes, Bari creates images that capture a moment and freeze it in a dream world. The show opens on Beacon Second Saturday April 12, and runs through May 4. The artist reception will be held from 3 to 6 p.m. Saturday, April 12.

Born and raised in Italy, Bari became interested in porcelain painting as a teenager and has been actively painting ever since. The transparency of the porcelain was fascinating to her because it contributes to the elegance of the finished work of art.

Hours: Wednesday through Monday noon to 6 p.m., Beacon Second Saturday noon to 9 p.m. RiverWinds Gallery is located at 172 Main St., Beacon. Call 845-838-2880 or visit riverwindsgallery.com.
