Larry Lawrence’s Solo Exhibit, “Livestock & Landscape” opening reception Sat. June 2, 7-9 PM

Above: Farm View

Below: Henrietta

Larry Lawrence enjoys painting his trademark portraits of familiar barnyard denizens: adorable sheep, benign cows, curious goats and his popular chickens. He finds that Guelph’s proximity to the surrounding countryside allows him to photograph his subjects and the landscape of rolling hills for painting in his Synchronicity studio. Many portraits are of the livestock on his son-in-law’s farm. With the long history of Guelph’s famous Veterinary College, it seems a good fit for folks to appreciate our domesticated friends on the farm. His show runs for the month of June at Whitestone.
