Roberta Thole’s contemporary and abstract works visually contain times past and present, with imagery and ideas of Greco-Roman antiquity. Known for her use of copper and fresco, her canvases are richly textured with geometric and architectural elements resembling ancient walls and ruins, resulting in a range of timeless, complex works. Her strong interest in classical symbolism was developed in her collegiate teaching background in art history, humanities, and drawing.
