Pictures at an Exhibition: Joe Hoover shows at Studio B

Hoover

Local watercolorist and art collector Joe Hoover will present his show "Pictures at an Exhibition" at Studio B in Boyertown, PA June 18, 2010 through July 12, 2010. The show's name is inspired by Modeste Mussorgsky's piano suite of the same name and invites you to a visual tour of the artist's collection.

Hoover has had a lifelong interest in art, but began painting seriously after he retired from teaching over 15 years ago. Several classes with James McFarlane and Tara Grim helped steer him solidly into watercolor. Hoover's work consists of generously colored florals as well as landscapes and abstracts which are inspired by his interests in music (he sings and plays several instruments) and gardening.

Hoover is a member of Berks Art Alliance, Chester County Art Association, and Pottstown Area Art Guild and participates in over two dozen group and solo shows each year. He is also a participating artist in Boyertown's Bear Fever project (www.bearfever.org); he put his skills to use painting "Flora" Hul-bear Too as well as the Ott Funeral Home bear.

An opening reception and artist meet-and-greet for "Pictures at an Exhibition" is scheduled for Friday, June 18 and is open to the public. The show is proudly sponsored by Jody and Loren Hulber of Fieldstone Farm in Macungie, who also sponsored the "Flora" bear.
