Featured Artist: Richlin Burnett Ryan🧑‍🎨🌷🎨
📍at Art Collective St. Augustine
📆June 5 - 28

Richlin's work explores the color play of tissue paper with acrylic paints and inks on canvas, which allows her to create amazing translucent color interactions and texture. Her process begins by removing all color and shade from her photographic reference, reducing the image to its linear or solid black-and-white form. She introduces vibrant colors to vacant spaces, sometimes overlapping the form creating a one of a kind art piece!

✨Join Art Collective for this First Friday, June 5th, from 5-9PM! Take part in their "People's Choice" Award, enter a giveaway, and enjoy light refreshments!
