“Sparkling” & “Healing Loved Ones” Oil on canvas by Joanne Geisel
Gallery artist & instructor Joanne Geisel is exploring brand new dimensions to her designs! Joanne uses oil paints to capture our Carolina coastlines, working from her photos or life to authentically render each scene. Now, alongside her impressionist landscapes, view expressive scenes from Joanne’s imagination, using abstract colors and sweeping curves to visualize natural motions. Says Joanne:
The joy of creating is to go deep within and find new ideas and emotions. What was once the reality of a beautiful landscape, for example, could become something else. It is a change of perspective that can defy logic. My goal is always to create an oil painting that I consider beautiful and shows my deep connection to nature, whether it is a landscape or an abstracted version of one.
Join us in the gallery on Sunday, June 14th, 2-5pm for our Artist Reception celebrating “Perspectives.” Enjoy special refreshments, meet our artists, and enjoy live music by guitarist Miles Moore! This exhibit will run through July 26th, alongside a new selection of works by our 30+ Gallery Artists.
