Award-winning artists in new exhibit at the gallery at Temple Habonim

The September/October show in the Gallery at Temple Habonim features works by three nationally recognized artists. There will be a wine and cheese reception and an opportunity to meet the artists on Sept. 14 from 1 to 3 p.m. The exhibit continues through Oct. 29.

Lynne Mehlman focuses on the truth and beauty she observes. Following the tradition of the Boston School of Painting, she works in oils and pastels as she combines the colors of the impressionists with the accuracy of French academic training. She has won many national awards, including the Arts Unlimited Award of Excellence for Oil Still Life.

Bonnie Jaffe captures the moment in her outstanding photography. Her artist’s eye sees what most of us would miss. Her work makes permanent the instant and creates a final product that is a well-designed work of art. Bonnie is the recipient of numerous national awards and has been included in noted juried shows.

Marc Jaffe has had a passion for photography since childhood. His style is varied and shows the uniqueness of people being themselves, often in solitary moments, often leaning toward humor. He has won several awards in recent years for his work. He couples his avocation with his day job as an OB-GYN delivering babies.

The Gallery at Temple Habonim is at 165 New Meadow Road in Barrington. Gallery hours are Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Fridays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and by appointment. For information, call 401-245-6536 or email gallery@templehabonim.org.
