Contemporary realist painter, Beth Flor, is exhibiting her latest work in a show at the Miele Gallery. The opening reception runs 5 to 7 p.m. Friday. She says she has more landscapes in this show to celebrate her 40th year in Petersburg.

Beth Flor’s artistic strengths have been noticed elsewhere. She has a large show coming up in El Paso in July at the International Museum of Art. The show consists of 45 paintings she produced in Mexico, both old and new.

Flor’s exhibit in the Miele Gallery will be on display all weekend.
