Hometowns of WNY is a unique collection of paintings inspired by beloved area towns and villages by Linda Hall. They portray an interesting harmony of shapes and colors as we look from a different perspective. Compare maps of the town with each painting and you will see the many creative deigns unfolding.
In the 1800’s, book makers employed artists to create patterned pages for the front and back of books which were called “endpapers.” These pages had swirling, multi-colored patterns and hand-drawn designs. Inspired by these endpapers, Ann Parker began taking photos of them and gradually added three-dimensional objects that mimicked the colors and patterns, or in some cases added opposite elements to the patterns.
