Too Hot To Handle (2024) 미술작품 Hilarie Couture 로

Hilarie Couture has been drawing since the age of two, but after a hiatus of 43 years, she started painting full time in 2014 .   All of her life experiences have translated to her canvases as she is self- taught but attends workshops from many artists she admires.

 Hilarie is represented by Attic Gallery, Camas, Washington and is currently seeking other representation .    She has had solo shows, has participated in various local and national group shows and in 2016, had curated her own travelling show in Vancouver Washington called” Founding Mothers Portraits of Progress”, painting 55 portraits of women in her community who made contributions in an effort to honor them.   This show exhibited throughout the city for almost two years at numerous venues as a community outreach and at the Historic Museum and the Fort Vancouver Gallery as a tribute to these remarkable women during Women’s History month.   Later, Hilarie wrote a book to document the project and more information about this is on her website.  She  created another project highlighting the diversity in Fort Wayne called “Unity with Variety”,  an art  show featuring people in the Fort Wayne area, representing various cultures and backgrounds.  This was a community outreach and lead to various programs, panel discussions and exhibits that cycled the region for over a year after its’ debut at the Jeffery Krull gallery in Fort Wayne.  It included an opening reception with the unveiling of 52 paintings where the subjects and the public witnessed it together for the first time.  She also wrote an exhibition  book to document this project with an audio component. In May, 2024  she had another  solo show at the Jeffery Krull Gallery called, “A DAY IN THE LIFE” , showcasing scenes from daily life in and around her community. The last solo show she created in autumn of 2024 was Transtemporal Travel, highlighting decades in time
