Kim Osgood
Russo Lee Gallery is pleased to present Drink the Wild Air by Kim Osgood. Known for her unique compositions of flora and fauna, this exhibition features monotypes as well as acrylic works on paper and panel. Integral to Osgood’s practice is the French tradition of plein-air painting. She often packs up her paints, brushes, and fold-up easel and hikes to open fields to paint in the open air.
Opening Reception | Thursday, October 5, 5:00-7:00 p.m.
Artist Talk | Saturday, October 14, 11:00 a.m.
