The Trippe Gallery

  A Horse Show  

​The featured exhibition for November, celebrating the beauty and power of horses through oil paintings and sculpture. A portion of exhibition sales will be donated to Positive Strides Therapeutic Riding Center which promotes healing, hope and growth through equine assisted services. Now in its 40th year, Positive Strides was previously known as Talbot Special Riders and served a small group of riders

with special needs in the Talbot County area.

​

Participating artists  in “A Horse Show” include Beth Bathe, Georganna Lenssen, and Elise Phillips. Their collective works share a distinctive approach to painting  that capture equine subjects with emotion, energy, and elegance. Their works are complemented by bronze sculptures by Joan Bennett and Paula Waterman.

• Beth Bathe (Lancaster, PA) brings a nostalgic, almost watercolor-like quality to her oil paintings, using Cobra Water Mixable Oils and unconventional tools to create images reminiscent of sepia-toned photographs.

• Georganna Lenssen explores nature and movement through bold, layered compositions in a process she describes as a “trialogue” between artist, subject, and canvas—where chaos gives way to unexpected harmony.

• Elise Phillips, a fifth-generation artist with deep roots in Pennsylvania's art scene, paints the local countryside with classical training and a timeless, impressionistic eye.

  Come experience the spirit, grace, and strength of the horse, interpreted through the eyes of these exceptional artists.
