Gioello and Tully showing at the ARTery next month

MILFORD The Artery gallery is proud to showcase the work of local artists Debbie Gioello and Madeline Tully throughout the month of August. Debbie Gioello will be presenting a group of representational butterfly paintings, which are created from actual specimens purchased on a trip to South America. The paintings have been executed using multiple layers of acrylic paint and varnish, which give the work a three-dimensional quality. Debbie says, “For me, butterflies, with their final shape and color configuration represent the beauty of metamorphisms. Madeline Tully, a long-time Artery member, will be presenting her varied collection of watercolors which elegantly capture the beauty of flowers, landscapes and nudes. The show will run from Thursday, Aug. 6 through Monday Sept. 7 with an artist’s reception to be held Saturday, Aug. 8 from 4 to 9 p.m., coinciding with Milford’s Art After Dark, a town wide arts-walk. The Artery is located in historic Forest Hall at the corner of Broad and Harford Streets in Milford. For more information call 570 409-1234.
