smART Gallery in Kinston will be hosting its next bi-monthly Artist Talk April 20th at 6pm. Painter Crystal Eadie will be presenting a discussion about her work and giving a demonstration on some of her techniques.

Crystal came to the smART Kinston Program almost a year ago from Greensboro looking for an artist community and a chance to focus on her work and to increase her portfolio with new ideas and themes for painting series. Crystal creates faux wall textures to reframe a room for any occasion, color scheme or specific texture.

She also paints beautiful, soft and expressive canvases which convey a sense of ethereal timelessness and can set off a room with a pop of color or a feeling of solitude.

Come meet Crystal and learn some of her techniques which you can use for yourself to liven up your own living or office space. Crystal takes commissions, teaches classes on her technique and offer prints as well as originals.
