“Resurrection Theme”, Kristine Williams
Montserrat College of Art student Kristine Williams will unveil her mural “Resurrection Theme”, along with other recent drawings and paintings, on Thursday evening, July 29, 2010 at 6:00 pm at First Baptist Church in Beverly. The public is invited to attend, to meet the artist and to enjoy light refreshments.
Kristine Williams is a senior at Montserrat College of Art. Kristine’s mural, done on the theme of the Resurrection, explores the subject through abstraction. The painting plays with movement, darkness that transcends into light, as well as with color, tone, and variation in brush strokes. Painted in acrylics on a wall created especially for the piece, the mural is planned to anchor a gallery space that will host more art over time.
First Baptist Church is located at 221 Cabot Street in downtown Beverly and is handicapped accessible. For more information, please call 978-922-3295 or visit www.fbcbeverly.org.
