RiverWinds Gallery at 172 Main St. in Beacon welcomes visitors to their new show, Evening Light: Oil Paintings by Linda Puiatti. The show opens on Beacon Second Saturday, March 9, 5 – 8 p.m. The show runs through April 7.

Puiatti (pronounced poo-YAH-tee) uses color, light and shadow to express a strong emotional connection with nature. She paints primarily with oils on canvas in her Holmes, N.Y., studio. Field studies painted outdoors in the Hudson Valley, the farmlands of Belgium and France or the coast of Cape Cod give way to larger studio works.

RiverWinds Gallery is celebrating its ninth year of showcasing and supporting Hudson Valley artists. The gallery offers traditional fine art paintings and photography plus contemporary crafts including ceramics, pottery, stationery, jewelry, scarves and hand-dyed yarn.

The gallery is open Wednesday – Monday 12 – 6 p.m. Hours on Beacon Second Saturday are 12 – 9 p.m. For more information, call 845-838-2880 or visit riverwindsgallery.com.
