painting exhibit at northshore unitarian universalist
Reading-based painter Lynne Cassinari is exhibiting her work in the Northshore Unitartian Universalist Church meeting room in Danvers through May 8.
The show, titled Silent Meaning, range from landscape images painted “en plein air” to still life arrangements painted in studio. Cassinari’s artwork marries realism with the abstract qualities of the medium such as color washes and bold brush strokes.
A graduate of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, Cassinari taught photography, printmaking and other art courses at Gloucester High School and was coordinator of the art department for four years. She is a member of the Danvers and Reading Art Associations.

dyment offer at coombs hills gallery
Cheryl Dyment, one of the founding members of “The Women in the Wild” painting group, will exhibit her latest body of work in a show titled “On the Loose” at the Newburyport Art Association in the Laura Coombs Hills Gallery through May 17.
From the time she started painting, Dyment longed to paint in a large format. Just over two years ago, she and her husband moved into an antique farmhouse, and converted the second floor of the barn into her studio, “Valley Farm Studio.” At this show, the viewer will see how Dyment has stretched not only in scale, but in style, as well.
Gallery hours are: Sunday, 1-5 p.m., Monday-Saturday, 11-5 p.m. Private showings can be accommodated by prior arrangement. For further information, please contact the Newburyport Art Association at 978-465-8769.
