Seventy two original works will be on display. All portrait and figurative paintings are alive with movement and luminous light. Irene’s Technique is ‘painterly yet precise” and her color is luscious. Her goal is “to capture the essence of the subject, then to create a work of art that will stand the test of time” While producing a work of Fine Art, Irene strives to capture the true personality of her subjects. Her portraits are painterly yet technically precise"

Hi Irene,
I attended your oil portrait demonstration today at the Monmouth
Festival of the Arts and just wanted to thank you for donating your
time and considerable talents! It was amazing to watch you work --
within 10 minutes (!) you had the basic likeness nailed, and you
sailed through the next hour producing a really fine painting. It was
so interesting to watch you precisely place the highlights and shadows
and then the color and detail to make it all come together. A true
professional in action!
Thanks again,
Ralph McGeehan
Tinton Falls
