Peaks – New Light


A collection of Oil Paintings by Randy Swann


Reception with artist, Saturday, April 12th, 

11:00am-1:00pm


Influenced by the natural wonders of Iceland while on a visit in early 2024, Swann painted a series of mountainous landscapes. The mountains that he saw were "sharply outlined against the sky, streaked with contrasting lines of oxidized red ochre, deep greenish umber and (an) array of dazzling blue hues that changed with the light as if through a kaleidoscope".


A Lakeville resident and former Trustee of the Library, multi-disciplinary artist and writer Swann describes these mountains as symbols of resilience, optimism, and hope. His paintings will be on display from April 12th through May 29th; his exhibition will launch with a reception on April 12th from 11am-1pm.
