Join Anna Hoey for an artist reception on her show entitled Faces of Feminine on Aug. 26 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Old Town Custom Framing & Gallery on Lowell Street.  The artist will answer questions about her work and to offer insight into her paintings.

Working from her home art studio in the Belfair area, Hoey produces both fine art and illustrations. She enjoys working in a variety of media, including oil, pastels, watercolor, gouache, colored pencil, graphite, charcoal and inks.

Her subject matter repertoire is diverse as well. In addition, she is as competent working with conceptual subject matter and artistic approaches as she is with realistic approaches.

Hoey’s show will be featured in the gallery  through Sept. 1.
