Celebrating Color & Light
Jane Adriance and Claudia Fouse Fountaine

June 5 - July 6, 2025
Opening Reception: Saturday, June 7, 4-6 pm

Artists' Gallery is delighted to present "Celebrating Color & Light," an uplifting and visually rich exhibition featuring the work of Jane Adriance and Claudia Fouse Fountaine. On view from June 5 through July 6, 2025, the show invites visitors to experience the artists’ shared love of luminosity, expressive color, and the vibrant energy of the natural world.

Jane Adriance is a celebrated local artist from Princeton whose paintings have captivated viewers for years. Her recent retrospective at the Arts Council of Princeton highlighted her enduring commitment to "open up new perspectives," a goal reflected in her bold and dreamlike imagery. Adriance’s work, often open to interpretation, evokes the influence of Surrealism and possibly Georgia O’Keeffe, while standing uniquely her own. Her mediums include watercolor and oil, she has exhibited widely, won numerous awards, and studied at prestigious institutions including the Barnes Foundation and the School of Visual Arts in New York. Her paintings are startling, contradictory, and deeply beautiful—always infused with sumptuous color.

Claudia Fountaine is a Bucks County artist with art degrees from Carnegie Mellon and Pratt Institute. After working as an illustrator in New York, she moved to Pennsylvania to raise a family, also volunteering in the local school art program. Becoming a docent at the Princeton Art Museum deepened her art appreciation and education in art history. As the years passed, she spent more time painting, always intrigued by her surroundings and interpreting them through a lens of soft light and brilliant color. Whether the subject is a platter of oysters or the Grand Canyon, it’s the quality of light, and the strong color that tie them all together.
