"Meet the Artist: Paul Rhymer" On July 31st, 2010 from 10 to 6, Paul D. Rhymer will be in the gallery, conducting a live sculpting session. Paul comes from a family of artists and has drawn and painted his whole life. After receiving an Associate of Arts degree in 1984, he accepted a job at the Smithsonian Institution doing taxidermy and model making and retired in 2010. As a result of so much three-dimensional work in his museum job, his own personal artwork gradually began to transform from painting and drawing into sculpture. Being an avid birder, waterfowl hunter, and taxidermist gives him constant anatomy and behavioral learning experiences that inspire his sculpture. Paul’s work has been exhibited in such prestigious art shows such as the National Sculpture Society, the Society of Animal Artists and Birds in Art. His wildlife sculpture is at the National Zoo, National Museum of Natural History, the Denver Zoo, Woodson Art Museum, Hiraim Blauvelt Museum and various public buildings and parks and private collections thought the US. Please join us a at Lovetts Gallery on Saturday, July 31st from 10-6, to meet this talented artist. |

LOUISA MCELWAIN | oil of joy 06 August 5 – 8 pm | opening reception friday evening through August 30 A classically trained artist with roots firmly planted in the New York School of Abstract Expressionism, McElwain paints with knives and masonry trowels, working quickly to capture an image before the light fades or the clouds drift past. Inspired by the color theory of Joseph Albers and a masters workshop with Wolf Kahn, it was at the Nera Simi drawing studio in Florence, Italy, in 1973 where McElwain says she learned to see by focusing on the same figure drawing for two weeks. For McElwain, paint is not subordinate to the motif. She often incorporates bits of stone, glass, plants, and even insects into the paint as she works. "There is a powerful feeling that surges up from the earth and through me as I paint," she says. "I am vulnerable to the powerful forces of wind and light and bugs. There is a rhythm to nature, a measured meter and tempo, the speed the clouds move in the sky, and the way the shadows shift. I'm walking a line, balancing between allowing the painting to exist for its own sake and expressing something true about my experience of nature.” Louisa McElwain | private view on thursday 05 august | by invitation only |

The exhibition will be in Gallery C on Wade Avenue, in Ridgewood Shopping Center, from August 6th through September 22nd. Josh George's cityscapes are influenced by works dating back to the 19th century impressionists. He is influenced by masters such as Edgar Degas and Mary Cassat because of their excellent drawing abilities. He is motivated and inspired by Richard Diabankorn and Wayne Thiebaud because, like George, they took the liberty of redesigning their landscapes to fit their own views. Josh George's work focuses on the changing cityscape from the street level view, like an Ash Can artist. George uses an plethora of materials when creating his works; not limiting himself, but including wallpaper scraps, postage stamps, and old product labels. Josh George has degrees from the Kansas City Art Institute and Central Missouri State University. He is a native of Kansas City, Missouri. |
