Katherine Evan’s Color Field paintings are inspired by the artworks of early color field pioneers Helen Frankenthaler and Mark Rothko. Katherine’s pieces are electric, charging up any space. We especially love them in these dark days of winter. Here we have “Winter Solstice", Acrylic on Canvas, 48" x 48"

Since 1919, the New Canaan community has gathered on God`s Acre on Christmas Eve to sing carols around the town Christmas Tree, a tradition started by John E. Hersam, founder of the New Canaan Advertiser. The tradition continues this year : Thursday Dec. 24 at 6:30 pm.
Here is Virgina Taylor`s interpretation of this tradition. As your family gathers this holiday season, stop by Handwright to see many more paintings of New Canaan`s distinct traditions painted by Virgina.

One of our favorite ways to display a work on paper is to have it appear to float above a mat inside a frame. The viewer of the piece gets to see the architecture of the paper vs. the edges being hidden being under a mat. We just completed an elegant piece: a gold painting on deckled paper floated in a black lacquer tray frame with a subtle 22kt gold lip.
