This exhibition of Debra Bermingham’s paintings are as elusive and mysterious as a landscape enveloped in mist. Images emerge slowly, sensuously from delicately layered surfaces. Veils of blue-gray to pearl-white shroud empty or barely populated space.

The hillsides, forests, and glades of the C...

His paintings are just a suggestion of a scene, but ...
