EASTON — Studio B Art Gallery announced on Monday the addition of Lani Browning as the latest featured artist. The public is invited on Aug. 2, from 5-7 p.m., during the First Friday Gallery Walk, to meet Browning and view a selection of her paintings.
Lani Browning has been an award-winning plein air oil painter for more than 25 years, and is known for her distinctive skill with colors, and the elegance and tonalism of her paintings, a statement from the gallery said. Her travels around the country and abroad, and her love of the land have contributed to her focus on the landscape.
“Her years of experience show in her confident and mature brushwork,” the statement said. As a juried signature member of Oil Painters of America, Women Artists of the West, and the historic 111-year-old Washington Society of Landscape Painters (where Browning serves as their archivist), and a past juried artist of Plein Air Easton and other events, Browning’s work was also published in Gary Pendleton’s book 100 Plein Air Painters of the Mid-Atlantic.
In 2005, Browning was among 10 plein air artists invited to paint at the Forbes family Chateau de Balleroy in Normandie, France, with an exhibition later at The Forbes Gallery in New York City. Over the years, she has partnered with The Nature Conservancy and the Chesapeake Bay Foundation on special exhibitions with the Washington Society of Landscape Painters that highlight selected sanctuaries.
While still enjoying the landscape, Browning is currently exploring a new vision of expressing herself by focusing on flowers and still life. She resides on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
“We are delighted to welcome Lani Browning to Studio B Art Gallery,” gallery owner Betty Huang said. “Lani’s exceptional talent and unique vision have captivated us and art enthusiasts. Her ability to bring landscapes and still life to life with such elegance and depth is truly remarkable. We are excited to share her beautiful work with our community and look forward to an inspiring evening with Lani during the First Friday Gallery Walk.”
In addition to featuring Lani Browning’s work, Huang will show her own paintings from a recent trip to Provence, France. She “captured the enchanting lavender fields and picturesque landscapes of the region and will be exhibiting a number of these stunning paintings,” the statement said.
“My experience in Provence was nothing short of magical,” said Huang. “The lavender fields and hillscapes provided endless inspiration, and I am excited to share my paintings from this incredible journey with our visitors. It’s a wonderful opportunity to bring a piece of Provence to Easton.”
