Drawing (3 Galleries) > Girl in Pink Dress & The Commmittee (A Story without Words)

... Natick artist Susan Gartrell mingles innocence and buried secrets in her spooky, lovely mixed-media 'Girl in Pink Dress.' Rendered in muted tones, it depicts a child on the cusp of adolescence dressed like a ballerina but wearing an eerie Joker-like mask. In Gartrell's words, "Sometimes, in art, things can be said that can be said in no other way.... She is young, but no longer innocent."
