Expansive Skies and Distant Horizons
Greenwald Gallery, Suite 106
Opening Friday, March 15, 5-9p
Michael will show a selection of large and small scale oil-on-canvas landscape paintings. His works feature cloud-filled skies and expansive horizons, effectively distilling the natural world into its basic elements of land, water and atmosphere. Michael's paintings "transport viewers to wide-open plains, pastures, and oceans, and manage to do so with consistent originality. Greenwald never seems to repeat himself, despite working in what is a fairly narrow genre. The distinguishing factor is his color palette: bright, sensuous, and nonobjective, but not gaudy or trite (Zachary Lewis, Scene Magazine)." More |
