Artist's Talk at Phillips Exeter Academy April 25th

Erik Koeppel "Mt. Washington from Square Ledge" 10 x 16 in. Oil on Canvas

I'm very excited to announce an Artist's Talk at Phillips Exeter Academy in their Lamont Gallery (info below). The talk is in conjunction with their current spectacular exhibition, Luminous Terrain: The Art of the White Mountains, which consists of an extensive selection of 19th Century White Mountain paintings from respected private collections. I'll be bringing some of my sketchbooks, painted sketches, and finished paintings, to talk about how these historic artists approached the landscape, and why I feel driven to follow in their footsteps. I'll be around for about 2 hours, and hope to have a lively discussion with lots of Q and A.

They even have a little Thomas Cole painting!

You really have to see this show to believe it. There are many rooms packed with first rate works! We were very honored to be invited to the after party at the home of New Hampshire's Governor, Maggie Hassan. 

Thanks for reading, and I look forward to seeing you at the talk!
