Emily Silver opened her solo show “Counterpane” at St Mary’s Art Center in Virginia City. Definitely worth a look!

Emily is an Artist in Residence at the Center during April 2015, in collaboration with the Capital City Arts Initiative.

Artist statement:

Emily Silver’s landscape-based abstract paintings reflect her deep personal connection to the Great Basin desert landscape and geography. As a former northern Nevada resident, her art describes how a strong sense of place influences her work more now that she lives on the Pacific coast.
