Retrospective - Rebecca Noble Exhibit and Sale

Opening Reception: Friday, May 9, 5-7 p.m.

Dr. John Cuthbert, former director of the West Virginia and Regional History Center and the man who literally wrote the book about "Art and Artists in West Virginia," once called Rebecca Noble the most "painterly" artist in our state. He meant that she had all the chops: style, technique and an extraordinary skill at capturing likenesses.

Not limited to portraits, the late Rebecca Noble could use her brush to make the viewer understand what the cat or dog or tree was feeling at the moment she captured them on canvas.

A Mid-Ohio Valley resident and registered nurse, Rebecca received her art training at the famed Ringling Art School in Florida. She returned to this area to pursue a nursing career and to share her painting gifts.

It is thanks to Rebecca's daughter, Heather Noble McGinnis, that we are able to present this exhibit of her mother's last works for admiration and for sale.

Exhibit and Sale will end on June 7th.
