    In the Wind and Light<\/strong>: Barbara Hirst\u2019s new show opens Friday at Bugera Matheson, a lovely collection of paintings inspired by the woodlands and foothills close to her Alberta home. \u201cWhen I began these paintings during the winter months,\u201d says Hirst, \u201cI thought about how nature is contained within the city and how snow transforms the landscape, giving even familiar places a disguise or mystique. My winter paintings of treed urban parkland are examples of magical realism in which ordinary places take on a hyperrealist or fantastical appearance.\u201d The reception is 1-4 p.m. Saturday if you\u2019d enjoy meeting this talented acrylic landscape painter in person.<\/p>\n
