Ethel Vrana has a show in the Salon. Her paintings were inspired by the resilience of the natural world, as exemplified by plants that live and thrive in diverse and often harsh environments. She combines abstract forms with realistic impressions to capture their remarkable adaptability and beauty.

I’ve been attracted to the same subject matter for over fifty years—the textures and environments of trees and grasses, of rocks and water and the light illuminating them. I feel my most alive, engaged with the world, and happy, when I’ve got a good artistic challenge. And I most love it when someone else sees what I’ve made and feels something of that same rush of satisfaction.
