for the Gazette

Twenty new oil landscapes of West Virginia scenes by Vermont-based artist Henry Isaacs go on display Saturday and remain up through May 31 at The Art Store, 1013 Bridge Road.

The plein-air artist, who has been exhibiting at The Art Store since 1993, travels to West Virginia often in pursuit of untouched landscapes and transforms them into Impressionistic cascades of colorful brushwork. 

Isaacs’ work is found in the collections of the Fogg Museum of Art at Harvard University, Indianapolis Museum of Art, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Rhode Island School of Design and the Hood Museum at Dartmouth College.

Isaacs will speak at 5:30 p.m. Saturday at The Art Store. A reception follows from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Call 345-1038.
