This exhibit will showcase a selection of original illustrations from Clay Rice’s illustrated book, The Lonely Shadow, which blends the elegant black and white silhouette tradition with a colorful world in the story of friendship between a lonely shadow and a little boy.
Clay Rice, a master silhouette artist, is a practitioner of an art form with a very long history. Inspired by his grandfather, noted silhouette artist Carew Rice, Clay Rice began creating silhouette art in the early 1980s.
