Wolfeboro artist Emily Marsh exhibits a selection of her illustrative work this month at the Wolfeboro Public Library.
On view will be paintings from her 2016 calendar, poster illustrations, and early drawings from the children’s book, Too Hot for Santa, a work done in collaboration with area playwright Bryan Halperin.
Marsh is a 24-year-old illustrator who loves to paint mermaids, fairies, elves and almost anything else that she’s never seen. This whimsical style is reflected in her colorful paintings, even when the subject matter is a poster for an Italian opera or a plate of frosted Valentine’s Day cookies. Marsh’s work takes an imaginative look at charming and mysterious subjects from both the real and the fantasy world.
The exhibit opens February 1 at the Wolfeboro Public Library and continues through the month. You can view the paintings during regular library hours: Monday through Thursday 9:30 to 8:00, Friday and Saturday 9:30 to 5:00.
