Art of Ida Butterworth at Long Hill Library

Art of Ida Butterworth at Long Hill Library

The Long Hill Township Library is hosting an exhibit of paintings by local artist Ida Butterworth through January 31, 2013.  Pieces in the exhibit include several of the Great Swamp. 

Butterworth has been a traditional oil painter since 1966, painting a wide variety of subjects, including seascapes, landscapes, cityscapes, still life, portraits and nature. Butterworth paints portraits in the Old Masters’ technique. Butterworth states “my process is to start with black and white paint, and then glaze color, layer upon layer, until realistic skin tone is achieved.”

Butterworth’s  favorite subjects are sunset and sunrise, in which she tries to “capture the fleeting glory of the passing scene, because it never repeats itself. Every sunset is different.”

Butterworth has  held numerous group and solo art exhibits in galleries, corporations, libraries, hospitals, restaurants and art associations. She is a frequent exhibitor at the invitation-only “International Miniature Art Exhibit,” held annually at the Paper Mill Playhouse, Millburn. Her miniature artwork has been accepted by two galleries in Maui, Hawaii.

Butterworths’s oil painting, “Stormy Day at Barnegat Light,” was accepted at the 4th Biannual Art Exhibit at the New Jersey State Museum, Trenton. It was also exhibited at the Summit Art Center Juried Art Exhibit and at Chubb in Warren Township. Butterworth has been a judge of the Student Art Exhibit at Felician College in Lodi, and she is registered at the library of the National Museum of Women in Arts, Washington, D.C.

Butterworth resides in Stirling and is also a realtor with Keller Williams Towne Square Realty, Bernardsville.

Please stop in at the Long Hill Township Library to view Butterworth’s exhibit.  Interested in art? Check out our art book & artist biographies while you’re at the library.

Long Hill Library Book Club - Meets Mon, Dec 10 @ 7pm

The Long Hill Library Book Club will be meeting on Monday, December 10 @ 7 pm. December's book is No! I Don't Want to Join a Book Club by Virginia Ironside. Copies of the book in regular, large print and audio are available at the Long Hill Library.

No! I Don't Want to Join a Book Club - Virginia Ironside

Her friends may face turning 60 with trepidation, but retired art teacher Marie Sharp can’t wait for the benefits—including the freedom to say no to book clubs and learning Italian.

The novel resembles a British comedy of manners with clever witticisms and smart cultural references; the heartwarming interactions with her first grandchild and close relationship with a dying friend add emotional depth. Sharp’s refreshing outlook is hard to resist, no matter your age.
