Carolyn Letvin: All Sheep

November - December 2008

"Why Sheep?" is the first question one asks of Carolyn Letvin. Her answer is---they are better than cows. Several years ago she went to a painting retreat in Pennsylvania to paint cows. However it was the sheep, not the cows that caught her interest. Her exhibition at the Acton Memorial Library is titled: “Carolyn Letvin: All Sheep.” The sheep on view are Jacob’s Sheep a breed that goes back to Biblical times. They have huge curved horns and very fluffy bodies held up on spindly legs. Letvin finds their shape and spotted coats a good vehicle to explore her painting techniques, surface textures, composition and color. Letvin has won numerous prizes for her work at local competitions and galleries and recently took a first place in the 2004 juried show of the Monotype Guild of New England. “All Sheep” is the exhibition at the Acton Memorial Library for November and December.
