More Art from Featured Artist Meg Matson and Guest Artists Crisman, Eultgen, and Tibrewala

Augusta Morning - Acrylic Painting by Meg Matson

Sometimes being an abstract or non- representational painter leaves the artist feeling that they need to prove themselves. A large population of viewers do not understand or "Get" that style of painting and dismiss it as not true art. I have found that I occasionally need to prove myself as an artist by very simply painting a "Pretty" painting. 

Ozark Evening - Acrylic Painting by Meg Matson

I found the Sunrise-Sunset theme to be a starting point because everyone can easily relate.  It is a nice change for me to switch gears like this but I am always drawn back to working larger, less restricting work that makes the viewer think about what they are looking at rather than being an obvious subject.

But for now I will enjoy a beautiful sunset and my moment of Zen.

Gateway Gallery Grand Opening ... a Grand Success!

In spite of the unkind freezing rain that couldn't have come at a more inappropriate time, it was quite a party. Thanks to all who ventured out to see the new artwork of both resident artists and guest artists. It was a very festive evening. Some people took us up on our challenge to impress us with their own creative version of black tie attire (see photo below). 

Many people left with some very nice door prizes donated by resident artists and local businesses. A number of other happy folks purchased original artworks, photographs, greeting cards, and more. 

We encourage those of you who decided not to risk a fender bender to come in to see the work before the show ends on February 17.
