Item Description

Dorothy Cancellieri (Yonkers)

Dorothy Cancellieri has taught art and yoga enrichment programs in elementary schools throughout Westchester County.  She has currently taught at a nursery school and gives private lessons to children. Ms. Cancellieri shares a studio at ArtsWestchester in White Plains.  She is a member of the Mamaroneck Artists Guild and the Blue Door Gallery, and has shown in various galleries throughout Westchester.  Her artwork has been inspired by her mentor, artist and professor, Don Stacy, who taught at Stacy Studio Workshop in Manhattan.  In her work, emotions and imagination are expressed through a kaleidoscope of color.  The use of vibrant paints has always enriched her and left her with a feeling of peace and happiness!  Bold colors can’t help but capture the viewer when he or she enters a room.  The figures, animals, still lives, and landscapes come alive through the excitement and passion of color.  The vividness of the canvases help convey the story, meaning and emotions of the paintings.
