Satterwhite Returns For BPA Gallery First Friday Art Walk, 1/5
by BWW News Desk - January 03, 2018
Join us in the BPA Gallery January 5 for an artist reception and an enjoyable evening of art and friends. Painting with her camera, Ms. Satterwhite captures light in a somewhat surreal and very imaginative, abstract way. The images are often mistaken for paintings, as she combines manual camera settings, motion, and natural light to depict a sense of graceful motion. They're offered as metal prints, canvas wraps, and acrylic prints. See more of Dinah's work at www.DinahSatterwhite.com.

by BWW News Desk - December 23, 2017

At first their relationship is a happy and glowing one, as the gulf of silence between them seems to be bridged by their desire to understand each other's needs and feelings, but discord soon develops as Sarah becomes militant for the rights of the deaf and rejects any hint that she is being patronized and pitied.
