Susan Biebuyck features radishes as her entry for RED.

Studio B's exhibit ROY G BIV celebrates the seven colors of the spectrum of light. The exhibit was inspired by 17th century scientist Isaac Newton’s explanation of the rainbow, according to gallery director Susan Biebuyck. “Newton explained the rainbow by passing light through a prism and identified the visible spectra as seven distinct colors represented in the acronym ‘Roy G Biv.’
“Our show is a collection of art from 17 artists whose creativity acted as a prism—refracting, bending and expanding their interpretations of each color into an array of styles and techniques. Color inspires; it is the language of the visual arts in its ability to express a wide range of emotions instantly.
The exhibit runs through November 10, 2024. In the upcoming articles over the next few weeks, each color will be featured by a few of the pieces of art.
