Having had her last Scottsdale show on the cusp of the pandemic, noted landscape artist Romona Youngquist spent the past four years finding the quiet places in her own environment where she could take refuge, feel safe, and fill her soul. Perhaps you, too, have retreated to familiar environs to weather the recent turmoils we’ve all experienced. What better way to channel your creativity than to share in Youngquist’s practice by finding the quiet places that soothe your soul. For many an art lover, that place has been to retreat into a favorite painting, a place of rest and relaxation that renews our spirit.
It is this notion that is conveyed in the recent panoramas of Romona Youngquist, finding places of restoration and then painting those locales to share with others. In this body of work, Youngquist identifies and softly expresses the places where she has found repose, sharing with us how she has sought and found tranquility during this tumultuous time. Join us for a period of respite by viewing these calming vistas and recall the quiet places in your own hectic life. We invite you to experience Romona Youngquist’s “Quiet Places”, opening Friday, March 15, 6:00-8:30 p.m. at Bonner David Scottsdale.
