 Susan Guy
"Explorations"
Thru Sept. 10, 2011
First Fridays Gallery Crawl:
Friday, September 2, 5 - 8pm
Susan Guy's work reflects external explorations in the natural world as well as internal explorations of self. The surrounding natural environment inspires the artist to express her appreciation of it freely in her oils and watercolors. Working the more controlled medium of kiln fired paint on glass helps turn her attention inwards to emotions abstractly. (more)

Dahlia Riley
"Places, Faces and Memories"
Sept. 13 - Oct. 8, 2011
Reception:
Saturday, Sept. 17, 4 - 7 pm
Friday, Oct. 7, 5-8 pm
Color is the dominant drive and inspiration for Dahlia's paintings. She is constantly torn between the desire to paint abstractly, and the desire to convey figuratively one of the images whose beauty haunts her, or a facial expression she'd love to capture. So many "Places, Faces and Memories..." and never enough time. (more)
