Beauty and the Beach: Oil painter Nadine Yura’s new solo exhibit is up at the Barnegat branch of the Ocean County Library through May. Her new collection of paintings “celebrates the color, joy and whimsy of ‘down the shore,’” she said. She calls herself a calligrapher of color, a charcoal sketcher. Her recognizable wide, blocky strokes coax shapes from the void. Those shapes land as fruits, flowers and footwear (and more) in eye-pleasingly balanced, impressionistic arrays.
