Barry Mayworm, a new and emerging artist from Princeton, will exhibit his original artwork in the Prairie Arts Center Gallery through the month of September, beginning with an opening reception from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, Sept. 6.

Using watercolors, Barry has developed his own unique style called the “mottled look,” which uses marks of various colors and textures to create expressive and enduring images. His art includes landscapes and florals that celebrate the beauty of nature. He also paints city-scapes, which illustrate the architecture and vitality of our city. Barry is a perpetual student of art, always exploring new and interesting ways of creating art.

Barry will give a special presentation about his creative process, from initial concept to final creation, titled “How I Build a Painting” at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 11

This event is free and open to the public.
