Calvert Library Art in the Stacks Features Local Artists

Local artists Jane Connor, Deborah Harkins, and Edward Davenport will be exhibiting their works at three Calvert Library locations in April 2016.

Painter Jane Connor was delighted to be stranded in Iceland for three days during a blizzard – she was inspired to paint its beauty. Formerly from England where she studied Spatial Design for four years, Jane enjoys creating with different media. The Icelandic paintings on display at Calvert Library Twin Beaches Branch in April are primarily done in oils and acrylics. Currently an Artist on Wheels, Jane will soon be opening a North Beach Wine and Design. Jane’s exhibit at Calvert Library Twin Beaches Branch opens April 1 and runs through April 30, 2016.

Edward Davenport will exhibit his photographs of the Drum Point community, animals and landscapes at Calvert Library Prince Frederick April 1 through June 2, 2016.

Deborah Harkins has been making art since she was a child. In addition to photography, she designs and creates beaded jewelry and fused glass jewelry. Deborah’s interest in photography began when she started to shoot with her phone and point and shoot camera. She soon moved to a DSLR which offers her a greater opportunity to translate what she sees in her mind’s eye to the final framed image. Her subject matter ranges from flowers and plants to insects, wildlife and landscapes. Meet artist Deborah Harkins at her opening reception, Tuesday, April 5, 2016, 5:30-8 p.m. at Calvert Library Southern Branch. Deborah can be reached at lbabetsahl@yahoo.com.
