The Guild of Boston Artists recently announced its upcoming exhibition and event schedule through December, including a tantalizing exhibition of new landscapes by acclaimed painter Dennis Sheehan.
 
Drawing largely from the 19th-century Barbizon School, painter Dennis Sheehan is known for creating poetic landscapes that are widely in demand. His paintings can be found all across the United States and abroad in both public and private collections, including in the White House.

Opening on November 7 at the Guild of Boston Artists is a solo exhibition of the most recent landscapes by Sheehan, an event in which attendees can meet the artist himself and, for the right price, add an original to their own collection. Moreover, the “engaging speaker” — as the guild asserts — will offer a demonstration and discussion on November 21.

Sheehan’s landscapes often display a bygone and rural America untouched by development and industry. Pastoral in their subject matter, his paintings also display an expressiveness of touch that engages the surface and actively pulls audiences in.
