Louise Farley: Outside the Lines opens this Friday evening, November 11, from 5-8 p.m.

Louise Farley is one of the original “Clearwater” artists, having rented a studio there since 2011. This show includes a new body of work Farley has been painting since June, which has never been exhibited: pictures from Africa, inspired by photos taken by her stepdaughter who traveled there earlier this Spring. “It has given me a new enthusiasm and reinvigorated my work,” Farley said of the new subject matter. “I love the colors, and the energy between the people.”
