Karen Frattali
Karen is known here at the LCAA as both a watercolor instructor and award winning artist. Many who have taken her classes have become accomplished painters themselves. She also teaches throughout the Middle Atlantic States for other groups and organizations.
Karen started her career as a high school teacher in Delaware County. Her art career blossomed after being inspired by another Chester County native: Andrew Wyeth. Over the years she transitioned to a more transparent and colorful palette. Subjects for her paintings vary with the seasons, including flowers, people, places visited and contemporary still life.
Karen participates in numerous national and international water media competitions each year, having achieved signature status with Philadelphia Watercolor Society, Baltimore Watercolor Society and Watercolor Society of Alabama. She is represented by Strodes Mill Gallery of West Chester, PA.

Proceeds benefit the LCAA
Last year our “Lancaster County Art Quilt” was such a success that we are doing it again! Members donated their original 5”x 7” pieces and we sold them as a fundraiser for the LCAA. Once again we will be featuring this exhibit online.
Our theme this year concentrates on color in Lancaster County and works will be hung in the gallery by color, just like a big color wheel. Your work should have a dominant color but it can have other colors as well. A landscape of green might have a bit of brown, or a still life of red roses could have a bit of green, etc. We will also be accepting small 3-D pieces.
Work can be any medium and should be done on good quality paper. Oil or acrylics can be done on a flat panel if you wish. Work must be 5” x 7” plus a border. No matting or framing needed. You may donate as many as you wish.

George Chapman Benefit
We have recently added this special exhibit to our schedule.
Longtime LCAA member George Chapman has had many health concerns and has recently gone into nursing care. Sales from this exhibit of over 50 works by George will help pay expenses. George worked in many mediums, including acrylic and pastel. His subjects are varied, with landscape, animals and many with a humorous turn. In addition to his framed paintings, there will also be unframed works, prints and notecards available.
George has won awards here at the LCAA and has also been a member of other groups including Eicher Art, Lititz Art Association and Octorara Art Association. He was on the Staff here at the LCAA in the early 2000’s.
