As part of the 5th Annual Art Studio and Gallery Tour in the Town of Bedford – Sunday, December 4, 1-5 pm – Goose Creek Studio will be presenting a special exhibit by local folk art painter Carol Burnett.  Burnett has selected 13 of her paintings – one for each month of the year plus one for the cover – to be included in a 2017 wall calendar.  The exhibit, titled “Through the Year,” will feature the original paintings which, along with the calendars, will be for sale.

 Carol Burnett was always drawing as a child. At the age of 60, and after many years of running local antique shops, she decided to return to painting.  Burnett calls the style of her work a naïve type of folk art.  She works in a variety of mediums that include both drawings and paintings in a mixed palette of pen and ink, watercolor, marker, acrylic and pastel.  Much of her work celebrates the nostalgia of the country landscape, family life or women’s fashions.

 Goose Creek Studio is located at 302 Court Street in Bedford.  For more information, see or call (540) 586-8482.
