“So simple, elegant and white
A Canterbury village of yore
Shaker Shapes in quiet refrain
Less can indeed be more.”

The Art Café and Photography Café participated in a Collaborative Show where the Art Café members chose a photograph to Interpret.

This photograph by Rick Stockwell is of the Shaker Village in winter at Canterbury NH.

The painting is an abstraction that uses pieces of the original image dislocated. The intent was to show how simple and graceful Shaker architecture is. Stripped down shapes that are so typical of them
