The show will run from February 9 through February 24 at the FAA Centre/Gallery in Niles-Fremont. A variety of new works from additional member artists will compliment the gallery's winter quarter exhibit running now through April 7. The gallery is open Wednesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and admission is free. Ely works primarily in oils. Her landscapes frequently begin as sketches, field studies and photos, to be completed in studio. She has had work included in Arts for the Parks and Oil Painters of America exhibits. Recently one of her paintings was included in "Room to Breathe: The Wild Heart of the San Francisco Peninsula." The artist has held several FAA positions including president, and has twice been named FAA Artist of the Year. An artist's reception will be held on Saturday, February 9 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. The public is welcome to attend. For details, call the FAA at (510) 792-0905 or visit FremontArtAssociation.org.
