Robert Moylan
Celebrated landscape artist, Robert Moylan, will be presenting 21 new works in the lush medium of gouache at the Canfield Gallery in Arlington from May 7 to June 29. The artist will host a reception at the gallery on Saturday, May 7, from 3pm to 5pm, and the show can be seen during library hours. All works are for sale.
Moylan is a master of the lush medium of gouache, creating elegant and serene landscapes in a distinctive and highly personal color palette. A resident of Waterford, N.Y., his subjects lie primarily in the rural villages surrounding the Battenkill River in Washington and Rensselaer counties of New York. In the tradition of the Hudson River School, luminous sunsets and dramatic skies ride above farm houses, barns, silos and fields that serve as reminders of the human existence within these natural settings. Painstakingly rendered with intricate detail, Moylan’s pieces convey a view that is both vast and expansive.

The Gallery is open during library hours: Tuesday and Thursday from 9 am to 8 pm, Wednesday from 9 am to 5 pm, Friday from 2 to 6 pm and Saturday from 10 am to 3 pm.
