“Bringing Wildlife to Paper,” is the first Ridgefield show by North Salem artist Robert Folberth.

Mr. Folberth began drawing in 1993 while recovering from surgery. While prior attempts at drawing had resulted in crude and unrealistic images, Mr. Folberth discovered a talent for drawing uncannily life-like images of wildlife. His drawings are done strictly in pencils – pastel, wax, charcoal, and watercolor pencils. Occasionally, he utilizes reverse color printing, or negative color of his originals to achieve dramatic results.
Mr. Folberth was named Artist of the Year by the Northern Westchester and Putnam Chapter of Ducks Unlimited in 1998. He has previously exhibited his work at the North Salem Library and Union Hall in North Salem.

Admission is free.
Additional parking at 152 Main Street.

A portion of the artist’s sales will go towards the ongoing restoration of the historic Carriage Barn, which was designed and built by renowned architect Cass Gilbert in 1910.
