Artist Rick J. Delanty’s solo exhibit “Beauty Unites Us” is on view through June 6 at Casa Romantica.
The exhibit features 24 recent paintings, including works painted during the pandemic and onsite. The solo show is inspired by the artist’s journal entries from March 2020. Delanty focuses on landscape paintings of San Clemente, Orange County and across the United States.
“What I think viewers will see when they come here is light and energy, and the impressionistic style in which I’ve worked,” said Delanty in a
video interview. “What I’m hoping is that will convey to them the positive feelings that I have about the state of the world today. That it’s not all doom and gloom, but definitely that there are places where we can find beauty if we just look for them.”

After reopening fully on March 16, Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens in San Clemente resumed its indoor events this week in time for spring break.
The nonprofit’s gardens remained open during the coronavirus pandemic at reduced capacity, and the venue relied on
virtual programming to share performances and events. However the historic Spanish-style home, typically open for self-guided tours, performances and art exhibits, was closed.
