Lorraine Ochsner is the May artist of the month at Geneva Public Library, 127 James St. Her watercolors are displayed on the lower level of the library throughout the month.

Ochsner said her watercolors are more than landscapes and florals, they reveal her respect for the environment and reflects nature with its placid and yet disconcerted attitudes. Her struggle is to attain a peaceful attitude through painting. A calm brush is used to invite the observer to a serene milieu and create a climate of calm. When Ochsner sees a sunset, a rare cloud formation or a beautiful blossom she wants to share the ambience of the moment.

The library seeks local artists to display their work in its art gallery on a monthly basis. Contact Jeannie Esposito at (630) 313-1008 or visit www.gpld.org/artgallery.
