When Linda Schroeter was 12 years old, one of her paintings was displayed by an art gallery owner in Schroeter’s South Australian town — and the piece sold for $50. Schroeter says she’s intrigued by the works of the Dutch masters of the 15th and 16th centuries, who manipulated light to create the sense of 3-D space. Several of her works will be on display in her upcoming art exhibit, “Symbolism and Narrative in Still Life,” on display Sept. 11-Oct. 4 at the Belvedere-Tiburon Library. An artist’s reception will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. on Sept. 11. At 1 p.m. the following Sunday, Sept. 16, Schroeter will give a free talk at the library about her paintings. (Diane Smith photo)
