About Our Artist

Canastota artist, Erica Dale Strzepek is the featured artist at the Canastota Public Library during the months of July and August.  Her summer exhibit in the Lawson Community Room on the lower level of the library features original works in watercolor and ink.

Erica's subjects capture emotion and memories such as a cold winter walk, simple collected treasures from the beach, or the reach of a rose hip cluster.  She finds interest in the forgotten allure of a former treasure or the simple beauty of nature.
