“Songs of the Birds” is a solo exhibit by Carol Hanna. 

“Several years ago I was fascinated by colored stripe studies done in a class based on color. Later, walking along Northern Lake Michigan, I heard a beautiful bird song in the top of the trees and I was literally transfixed.  After a period of reflection, I knew that I wanted somehow to transfer that sound into painting and decided to continue my earlier explorations of the stripe format.”  Carol’s words from her artist statement.

Below is a short slideshow of pictures from the artist reception held on November 4, 2011.

Be sure to read the exhibit review by John Cantu for AnnArbor.com.
