HOLLIS – Stephen Previte will hold his annual Spring Open Studio in conjunction with the NH Open Doors statewide touring event on the two consecutive weekends of Saturday and Sunday, May 6 and 7 and May 13 and 14 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. at 112 Silver Lake Road.

At this exhibit, which he is calling “Decisions – Decisions!” he will be showing a collection of traditional subjects, which he is well known for, along with an exciting new collection of urban/industrial paintings on paper. He is looking forward to speaking with people about the contrasting terms of these diverse subject matters and to see where their taste lies.

He works with the medium of oil paint in a style that he describes as “Representational Impressionism.” His main attraction regardless of subject matter is always that of light and atmosphere.

He shows his paintings throughout New England and New York and among some of his more notable exhibits and awards are: Currier Museum of Art, Manchester, NH, 2008, 2007, 1997 NHAA Exhibit; and Whistler House Museum of Art, Lowell, Mass., 1996 Invitational Exhibit.

Previte says he always enjoys seeing old friends and making new ones while sharing both his paintings and conversation with them. He will also be accepting new students for oil painting classes which he conducts at his studio in Nashua.

Light refreshments will be served.
