Opening Reception: Adventures Near and Far by Priscilla Jackett

Priscilla Jacket has lived vear-round in Provincetown for over 50 years. Without an education in drawing, Priscilla is still surprised she can convey a subject that is recognizable without being photographic. Priscilla enjoys the lushness and 'messyness* of oil paint and the texture of rough surfaces showing through the stroke. She feels she is just scratching the surface of becoming an artist. She has been represented at PAAM's member and juried shows, the annual Church of St Mary of the Harbor Art & Spirit Auction, and The Post Office Gallery in North Truro. Her paintings are in several private collections.
