Fendrock featured at gallery During the month of May, the Stable Art Gallery will present “Capturing Light in Still Life and Landscape,” and exhibit of Lillian Fendrock’s paintings. This award-winning artist’s work features the effect of light on her subjects. Whether painting indoors with the cool north light on still life, or painting outdoors with sunlight on the landscape, Fendrock captures luminosity, diffused light, reflected light, and highlight in her paintings. Fendrock studied at the Art Students League, The Parsons School of Design, and the Ridgewood Art Institute. Her life-long interest in fashion and her work as a draftperson have combined to shape her approach to painting. She has exhibited in juried shows in the area and is the recipient of many awards. The Stable Gallery, located at 259 North Maple Avenue, is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. or by appointment.
