View Sister’s art at Coffee Grounds
Artwork by Sister of Providence Jody O’Neil will be on display at Coffee Grounds, 423 Wabash Ave., through May 31.
O’Neil, artist in residence at St. Mary-of-the-Woods, has eight renderings on display, all of which are available for purchase. Her work in this exhibit focuses on nature themes.
“Nature inspires me. I’ve always enjoyed working with texture within acrylic paintings,” O’Neil said.
The exhibit includes eight white-on-white textured canvases. The application method is the use of old credit cards applied to self-made or found-object stencils. She refers to the artwork as sculptural paintings on canvas.
