Joy Yoo, a Ridgewood dentist, loves painting outdoors to capture the light and air. She wants to preserve the memory of the quick changing moments to an everlasting visual object, “Art.”
In this exhibition, she expresses the poetic winter scenery; quiet evening and long winter night, snow covered mountains and hills, and the gray sky filled with upcoming snow.
Another group of paintings at the show is to bring you a bit different light and air of southwestern desert, Ghost Ranch in New Mexico where she visited for painting last fall. Magic of art will take you there. You will feel glowing red rocks, dry wind, and Rio Chama.
Lastly birds are her favorite motif. Duck portrait shows off the jewel of colorful feathers while a group of Canadian geese hang out on the marsh. Then you will finish the tour with a deep sense of “Joy of Solitude.”
Hope this art brings you peace and healing!
