Roslyn Village Gallery opens its final show of the year this weekend with a collection of mixed media works from artists around the area.
Gallery owner Marsha Tarlow said the show is a hodgepodge of different techniques and mediums from artists who have worked in her studio on Old Northern Boulevard in Roslyn.
“This is a mixed media exhibit showing the cream of the crop,” Tarlow said. “These are my best artists to date.”

Artists featured include Tarlow, Deborah Katz, Ellen Shiff, Shelly Cohen, Arlene Levine and Joan Kantounis as well as works from the gallery’s instructors Joe Palazzolo and Marc Josloff.
Levine, a student of Palazzolo’s at the gallery, has a large and colorful oil painting of a woman in the show
Tarlow held a fundraising exhibit for Kantounis, who has pancreatic cancer, last month and still has five paintings for sale in the gallery. All works in the exhibit are for sale, Tarlow said.
Palazzolo has on display in the exhibit two diptychs, two paintings that can either be combined to be one image or separated as two. While one pair sits closely side by side in the show, another pair is stacked.

Tarlow, who recently added watercolor and oil painting lessons to the gallery, said she enjoys working in an exhibit space that feels worked in and maybe a little messy.
Gift certificates have been added at the gallery, Tarlow said. For more information, call 516-721-7807.
Oil classes with Palazzolo are 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday and 2 to 5 p.m. Saturday. Josloff also has a three-day watercolor workshop on Jan. 6, 13 and 27.
Josloff said his workshops, which last from one to five classes, are mostly watercolor but some will be open to all mediums.
Josloff is a 40-year art instructor and did his graduate studies in art therapy. Josloff said he treats each student as an individual as opposed to using the typical cookie-cutter approach to art instruction.
