The Mindy Ross Gallery is alive with Spring colors. After viewing the artworks, one wants to go outdoors and be inspired as artist Susan Miiller has been in this recent series of themed artworks. Titled, Skyscapes, the oil paintings in the show depict open skies and clouds during all times of a day and weather in the Hudson-Delaware region.

The artworks displayed range in size from very large to medium to very small, but no matter the size, each offers a sense of grandeur as the artist takes advantage of the everchanging sky views both in colors and cloud formations and, indeed, each invites the viewer to celebrate the beauty of these moments.

Skyscapes: Oil Paintings by Susan Miiller is on view through 31.

Gallery hours: 8 a.m. - 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday; Friday 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.

The college and gallery are closed during Memorial Day Weekend.

A Closing Reception is 4 - 6:30 p.m. on Friday, May 31. During the reception, music will be provided by Bev Poyerd, pianist and Al Ramos, bassist.
