Write a commentThe Riverside Artisans co-operative welcomes Stacey Pope, a talented oil and pastel artist to its shop in downtown Oswego.
Stacey is a landscape artist who works both Plein Air in the field, as well as in her studio.
As a landscape painter, her paintings capture the colorful sunsets, ever-changing clouds, flowing rivers and creeks, lush farmland dotted with old structures, and gentle hills located in upstate New York.
Stacey connects to a location where she translates her experiences into pastel and oil paintings to share with others. Working in small formats (6x6") or larger, Stacey uses a variety of brushstrokes, color, and light to communicate a place and time with the viewer.
For 31 years she taught art to high school students. Now, Stacey focuses full-time on her painting, and participates in group and solo exhibitions as well as a variety of plein air festivals in the region. Her work is in many collections around the nation, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
Riverside Artisans is a cooperative art store and gallery, operated by local artists and craftspeople, located in the Canal Commons at 191 W 1st Street, in downtown Oswego. The store is open Tuesday – Sunday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
