Artist ~ Jonathan Adrian
January 5 - February 2, 2019

Come meet Jonathan on Saturday, January 5th from 11 am to 1 pm. Light refreshments will be available. Sponsored by the Friends of the Lawrence Library.

Inspired by traditional children’s book illustrators and animators of the 1950’s, Jonathan Adrian’s use of vivid colors and whimsical character design are meant to evoke the wonder and joys of youth. Layers of shape are used to direct the eye while complimentary color palettes play with the imitation of light and shadow, pulling the viewers focus. Jonathan studied illustration and design at Lesley University and has worked on a number of freelance projects, both traditional and digital. Though his styles and mediums vary, his favored of each are found in his traditional gouache painted illustrations demonstrated in this showing.

The show runs through noon on Saturday, February 2, 2019.

"With the release of her CD "Crazy Love", Karen Grenier continues to make her mark as a both a gifted songwriter and crafty lyricist. Her songs resonate in the heart, leaving listeners anticipating the next song and humming her catchy melodies. A polished performer, her smooth, penetrating voice, rhythmic acoustic style and positive emotional energy make for an excellent concert experience.

Karen was named a semifinalist in the 2006 Peace driven Songwriting Contest and won a songwriting award from Nashville's Music City Search in 2002. Several of her songs have been featured on Dawson's Creek.

Karen has spent the past twenty years as a seasonal performer in the Cape Cod vacation destination of Provincetown, MA. She has performed at clubs, festivals, coffee houses and colleges throughout Northeast. Karen currently makes her living both as a school principal and a professional musician. "You've got to reach for your dreams...it's an attitude I've always tried to inspire in my students..."
