When we bid farewell to the end of a dark or lonely night we welcome the warm glow of a sunrise. As the snappy winter wind inspires us to turn up our coat collars, we long for tinge of color to brighten our back yards with a growing hue of green. Well folks, I have great news. Hilda Kilpatrick’s paintings will do just that. Cheers! Enter stage right, a palate of full spectrum celebration. Kilpatrick’s solo show “The Season of Color” at the Buenaventura Gallery from April 1 through April 27, 2008 is an energetic display of color with a few surprises for those familiar with Kilpatrick’s expressionistic style. Opening reception for the artist will be held on Saturday, April 5 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. The artist will also be at the gallery during the Ventura Spring ArtWalk, April 26 & 27, 2008. Kilpatrick’s images are based from California scenery that has been inspirational to her for years. When choosing a scene Kilpatrick says “I paint places that speak to my soul, that make me laugh inside and that make my heart jump with excitement.” Peruvian born and well traveled, Hilda Kilpatrick appreciates the timeless moments of a place that may not be here tomorrow.
