Oil Painting Demonstration at RiverJam

OIL PAINTING DEMO with Dutch artist Carole Boggemann Peirson

Carole has been a professional oil painter and teacher since 2005. She is mainly inspired by the light
illuminating East Coast landscapes. She tries to captures the atmosphere, time of day and season to share the
beauty of a particular moment with those who view her works. Her demo will give visitors to the River Jam
event on Saturday May 4 (1-4pm) a unique opportunity to see an artist work in person as well as to get to know
the artist and her work. She will share her experiences as an artist and have some of her oil paintings for sale at
the event. People can also sign up for her 2-day Loving the Landscape on June 28 & 29 at Arts on Main.

“Touched”
“Transcendence”

Full-time artist Carole Böggemann Peirson was born and raised in the Netherlands. Carole went to a technical college for Graphic Design and received a bachelor’s degree in Marketing Communication. An internship abroad was part of the last college and this brought her to the United States for the firsttime in 1995. Love made her come back many more times after that and she moved overseaspermanently in 2000. She now has a home-based studio on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

During the month of June, artwork created during t During the month of June, artwork created during the 2023 Gloucester Arts Festival will be on display at Arts on Main. There will be NO First Friday in the month of June, instead we encourage everyone to attend Gloucester Arts Festival event, Brews, Brine, & Wine at Historic Timberneck Farm at Machicomoco State Park.

For information about Brews, Brine & Wine visit https://www.gloucesterartsfestival.com/brews-brine-wine-2023

“Come enjoy oysters and beer while visiting the Plein Air artists who will be interpreting the beautiful surroundings on their canvases, creating small works that will be available for sale at the event. Art, food, and beautiful scenery will make for a lovely evening for the whole family. Co-hosted by the Fairfield Foundation, Brews & Brine will be held at Machicomoco State Park this year.

Timberneck Farm at Machicomoco State Park sits on land that was a part of the Powhatan empire, just downriver from Werowocomoco, home of the paramount chief Powhatan and his daughter Pocahontas. The new state park serves as a “gateway” to the Tsenacomoco region – land that Virginia’s Algonquin tribes occupied for hundreds of years before European settlement at Jamestown Island.”
