The flowers, birds, barns, and backroads of the Northeast Kingdom are the subjects of Elaine Cole-Kerr's vivid paintings adorning the halls of the Greensboro Free Library this month. Elaine is a self-taught artist born and raised in Westmore who hosts a gallery at her home here in Greensboro. She works in a number of mediums including pencil, watercolor, oils, and acrylics, and her paintings are enhanced by distinct wooden frames built by her husband, Rod Kerr. Elaine created a portrait of the Library that adorns the Reading Room. She also has illustrated picture books, and will share her new book at an upcoming story time. Her works call to mind the "primitive school" whimsy of Grandma Moses and the Cahoons. The Library welcomes everyone to meet Elaine and view her paintings on Tuesday, August 15th at 6:30pm. Light refreshments will be served.
