“BEE KEEPER’S HOUSE”: Joseph Barrett’s exhibition “Alluvial Years” is on display at the Silverman Gallery in New Hope until October 30. Pictured here is his 22 x 22 inch oil on canvas. 

Now until October 30, artist Joseph Barrett has his work on display at the Silverman Gallery in Bucks County. His exhibition, “Alluvial Years,” is a compilation of his most recent works alongside paintings done over the last 25 years. The exhibition title refers to the subjects he has painted along the Delaware Valley.  

Barrett, who spends time in his studio every afternoon, often sets aside paintings he feels need to be resolved.  At times, the artist doesn’t work on them again for years, which is the case for several paintings in this exhibit.

After getting his Masters of Fine Art in painting at the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia, Barrett taught art for 15 years in Camden. He’s since moved to Lahaska, where he continues to paint.

“Alluvial Years,” will be open to the public Wednesday – Sunday, 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. at 4920 York Road (Route 202) in Holicong, Pa. For more information, call (215) 794-4300 or visit, www.silvermangallery.com.
