Principle Gallery, 208 King St., in Alexandria, has hosted Women Painting Women shows in 2012, 2013, and now in 2014 we continue to celebrate the modern female artist, this year highlighting works from all genres: figurative and portraiture, still life, as well as landscape. This incorporation of new subjects allows for us to fully display the mastery of talent that can be found in today’s women painters. Using the title Pay It Forward, we want to highlight the new artists who have been invited to show with us for this iteration of WPW shows. Some of the original Women Painting Women artists and those from the 2013 (R)evolution exhibition have paid their “place” in the exhibition forward to a new name, which allows the group’s membership to grow and thus further promotes exposure and recognition of women as painters. New to Principle for this unique show are: Angela Cunningham, Sara Jane Doberstein, Anelecia Hannah, Natalie Italiano, Sophie Ploeg, and Pamela Wilson.
A preview of Pay It Forward is available at the gallery website.
