Art at the Library

The use of dynamic colors and expression of movement are hallmarks of the paintings and collages of Theodosia Tamborlane. Her works are abstract, yet fall into series inspired by different topics.  The series on display at the Westfield Memorial Library is inspired by the Circus.
