Art x 4: Four Artists, Four Visions | Artist Talk

Artist Talk Tuesday, May 5, 2026 from 5pm to 7pm The artists represented in Art X 4 see the artist talk as a conversation between viewer and art maker. To get the conversation going, each will share aspects that influence their work. Linda Berry: The choice of paper is a key concern in her works on paper. Bonnie Figgatt: Her earlier, exquisitely detailed botanical drawings have informed her more abstract prints. Angela Liptack: What moved her to go from using fabric as a medium for quilt making to a medium for wall art. Peggy Thomas: How nature – from tree bark to polar bears – inspires her clay art. The artists hope the viewers will take it from there with questions and observations. On display in The Meetinghouse Gallery Art x 4 Four Artists, Four Visions April 12 – May 24, 2026 Linda Berry, Bonnie Figgatt, Angela Liptack, and Peggy Thomas Shields Hall, The Meetinghouse The Gallery is open Tuesdays – Sundays 8:00 am – 4:00 pm for viewing. (Closed Mondays). Artists’ Statement We are four friends in art, a circle of artists with varied visions interpreted across disparate media: monotype, oil and acrylic, color pencil, pen and ink, watercolor, graphite, fabric, and clay. We share ideas, offer encouragement, and critique each other’s work. When one is juried into a show, we all cheer. When one learns a new technique, she shares it. We keep each other posted on show openings and other opportunities to experience art together. This show, Art x 4, exhibits our individual works, from landscape to portrait and from still life to fantasy.
