In The kitchen is hosting a series of new works by local artist Lil McGill from now until mid April. The show is called Shades of Saffron. The closing reception will be April 11th from 4-6 pm at In The Kitchen. Saffron appetizers will be served!

Native Californian Lil McGill is a painter and poet. Her ethereal abstracts, dreamscapes, studies and explorations of pure color and mood are inspired by Frankenthaler, Jenkins and Rothko, but have a style and energy uniquely their own.

She works with acrylic paint on raw canvas, which allows the colors to flow and blend to create their own worlds, reminiscent of deep space nebulas and starbursts, undersea visions, or O’Keeffe-like florals. Keenly interested in art as a form of healing, she plans to continue her painting explorations for years to come.

Lil McGill and her husband, artist and musician R.C. Trice, currently operate their own art company, and live with their children and assorted friends and wildlife in Grass Valley, California, enjoying working in an old barn which has been converted into artist studios.
