Artist Rebecca Gottesman says on her website, “I create paintings that remind people of the beautiful and fragile world in which we live.” Her expressive, large-scale oils are appearing through September at The Tip Top Café in White River Junction, located in the building of the same name. The 45,000-square-foot former bakery is alive with artist spaces, in fact, including the Cooler Gallery and Three Rivers Printmaking Studio. Collectively they provide a great summer destination, and Gottesman’s works make for an extra-pleasant dining experience. Pictured: “Stream in the Woods.”
