June is busting out all over and that means summer is here! Watermelon, ice cream, and a sunny hillside are just some images that summer evokes. Come enjoy the whimsy and fun of “Variations on a Theme” with Denise Shamoun Phalan, Robin Rosner, and Trish Vermillion as they share their various views of summer depicted in oil paintings and porcelain tiles.
Denise Shamoun Phalan is getting a kick out of her love of Red Shoes. Her paintings offer us a playful glimpse at quirky and look-at-me summer foot fashions.



Robin Rosner has a passion for landscapes. Her paintings exhibit a freshness that is both graceful and winsome. Widely traveled, she continues to work with photo's creating a surprising effect of light and color.
Trish Vermillion moved to Fredericksburg in 2008 and was among the first group of artists to inhabit the studio space at the old Workhouse. Trish began as a glass artist and has been painting and firing porcelain portraits since 2007. "Both media I have chosen are somewhat obscure and historic. I find it rewarding to share knowledge about the history of both with the public."
