FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
‘Moments in Everyday Life’ to Open at Art Center March 15
Edina, Minn., Feb. 9, 2018 – The Edina Art Center, 4701 W. 64th Street, will host the “Moments in
Everyday Life” gallery March 15-April 18. The gallery will feature paintings from Louise Gillis, a recognized
contemporary realist painter who creates her artwork with watercolor and oil paint.
The opening reception will be held at 5-8 p.m. Thursday, March 15, at the Edina Art Center’s Margaret Foss
Gallery. The opening reception is free and open to the public.
Gillis takes great pride in the craftsmanship of her work and belief that all great art is a reflection of the
individual’s interpretation of the beauty of nature. Gillis’ knowledge of impressionistic color theory sets the
stage for figurative, still life and landscapes. Her painting is a powerful creative force transferring vision into a
painted image.
The exhibition is free and can be viewed during the Edina Art Center’s normal hours of 9 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday-
Thursday, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday.
