A self taught artist she has been sketching, drawing and painting for over forty-five years.
“I was encouraged by two local artists who are friends of the family, to do this exhibition,” says Henri.  “They thought that I had something to offer, so I invited a staff member from JAHC to view my work and she also advised me to display my art.”

Henri’s work is influenced by abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock. “I realized you can do whatever you want to, and that I was not limited to trees, mountains or flowers.” Henri’s preference has always been inanimate objects; expressing herself through color, line direction, shape and feelings. She finds her inspiration in nature, structures or live forms: “It can be color on a rusty tin roof or how the light hits a telephone wire or even dreams. Color is the most important aspect of my paintings and I truly feel that color can make your room come alive.”

The exhibition opens to the public on Friday, September 3rd with a reception 4:30 – 7 pm, and will run through September 27th.
