Fall is almost here, and if you’re one of those people looking forward to the gorgeous displays of color Mother Nature is going to put on, Mt. Pleasant Arts IMPACT has an even more colorful idea: head on over to the Mt. Pleasant Public Library for a stunning art show display of color by Mt. Pleasant’s own Annie Guldberg.
Guldberg, the well-known local artist, is featured at the Arts IMPACT mini gallery for the months of September and October. The theme of the show is “Spreading Joy through COLOR,” and visitors to the gallery will not be disappointed.
Guldberg says that her main passion is “vibrant oil paintings that have been swirling in my mind and studio since I was in high school.” Flowers are an obvious choice for subjects, but visitors will be surprised at the dramatic use of color in landscapes and simple outdoor scenes portrayed in rich and dramatic hues.
Guldberg has shown her work locally and throughout the Midwest. In addition to her own professional work and commissions, she fulfills her commitment to passing on her love of art by teaching a full schedule of one-on-one art lessons in her studio.
When she’s not out and about working on several local murals, she enjoys spending time with her husband and two sons.
Guldberg’s “Spreading Joy Through Color” show is available for viewing free during regular hours at the Mt. Pleasant Public Library: Monday-Thursday 9 a.m.-7 p.m., Friday 9 a.m.-5 p.m., and Saturday 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Even when the fall colors fade, Annie’s amazing display at the library will continue to be on display until November. Interested individuals can purchase their own sample of Guldberg’s work to take home and enjoy by contacting her at www.OilPainterAnnie.com.
