Barbara Alloway will show her foil and metal painting in the latest exhibit at the Santa Maria Public Library’s Shepard Hall: Flow. See it at 421 S. McClelland St. throughout August.
Â
Alloway has been painting professionally for about 10 years. She started painting on foil and metal a few years ago as one of those “what ifs”—as in “What if I painted on foil and metal?” The result was paint that slips and slides and surprises with mood or texture or color Alloway didn’t even know was there.
Â
An artist reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Aug. 11 at the library.
