Rose-Colored Glasses: Art Exhibit Opening Reception

Meet the artist, Tami Cooper, with a welcoming opening reception, interview and complimentary sips – for the Rose Colored Glasses exhibit at the Atrium in Old Sacramento.

Up-cycled from rescued wood, Tami Cooper’s artwork is eco-conscious in both content and material. She repurposes used paintings and found boards to create original artworks. Using palette knives and heavy-bodied paint to create texture, the art is bold and vivid.

Cooper views the world through rose-colored glasses: she creates landscape paintings which reflect an optimistic and imaginative perspective. Skies are purple, mountains are orange, lakes are pink, and oceans are yellow – each painted scene is an expression of environmental hope. By envisioning an ideal and magical world, Cooper encourages viewers to imagine a future in which nature is defined by resilience and possibility. Her vibrant use of unexpected colors transforms familiar landscapes into dreamlike spaces that inspire viewers to build a brighter and more sustainable future.

The Rose Colored Glasses Exhibit runs from August 15th until September 11th, with the reception held on Saturday, August 15 from 5-8pm.
