SUMMARY:Art Colors Life
DESCRIPTION:Botanical and travel paintings by Chris Graebner\, vibrant acrylic landscape paintings by Marcy Lansman\, needle felted figurative sculpture by Lynn Wartski. In the gallery July 22nd through August 24th. Opening reception during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk\, July 25th\, 6-9pm. During the art walk the Lars Barbary Trio: Larry Vellani\, Iryna Tkachenko and Stan Lewis will perform old time country & singer song writer music on the patio in front of the gallery.  \nThe show will include a talk by the artists in the gallery on Saturday\, August 9th at 4pm. \nThe title of this show\, ”Art Colors Life\,” is taken from Chris Graebner’s favorite quote about art. Sir John Lubbock writes in his book\, The Pleasures of Life\, that “Art is unquestionably one of the purest and highest elements in human happiness. It trains the mind through the eye\, and the eye through the mind.  As the sun colors flowers\, so does art color life.”\n	Graebner often paints from photos taken while traveling. Because she’s not traveling very much these days\, she spent several weeks this winter going through thousands of photos taken over the last twenty years\, pulling out the ones that called to her. Graebner says her photos are not great\, as they are often taken from a moving vehicle\, through streaky windows. However they return her to a time and place where something struck her that she wanted to remember – perhaps the way a plant really looks up close\, maybe the way ripples from a cat’s tongue make their way across a pool of water\, or maybe the angles and colors of rooftops – something in particular that she wanted to remember. Though an oil painter\, Graebner likes to add other mediums such as cold wax\, graphite or oil-based inks; often using acrylics to provide the base color of her paintings.\n	Lynn Wartski has also drawn inspiration from John Lubbock’s quote. Lubbock draws a reciprocal relationship between the mind and the eye and this year she’s noticed something similar with the last phrase\, that life can color art as well. Her felt sculptures usually evoke a sense of whimsy or humor\, but lighthearted joy-sparking art has been a challenge lately\, and  Wartski has found herself bouncing between the widely different aims of wanting to say more\, or just letting herself play. She decided to just let the work go where it wants to go. One piece may be a little more serious\, the next a pure flight of fancy.  “Winged Liberty Rises” is a piece that comments on current events and endeavors to express hope. The figure is a felted representation of a marble statue that has been knocked down and a little bit bloodied but possesses the determination and strength to pull itself up.  “Love Is Nurtured” is a joyful piece depicting a mother and baby giraffe. The two figures stand with foreheads touching and eyes closed. The mother’s long neck is bent down touching the young one. The giraffe’s distinctive pattern morphs from back to front into a stylized floral pattern that appears to pass from mother to baby. Wartski’s sculptures are created by needle felting wool fiber over a wire and batting armature.\n	Painter Marcy Lansman is excited by color in her landscapes. Using areas of bright color on the canvas to create a base\, and using a palette knife to create an overpainting on top\, she lets bits of the underpainting peak through. For this show she’s used a wider color palette. For example\, her painting “Behind the Dunes” depicts the dramatically curving trees that grow just inland of the dunes on our North Carolina islands. In the painting the leaves vary from deep blue to a very pale white/yellow\, and Lansman finds that the wider the variety of colors\, the more vibrant the painting. Asked if she paints plein air\, Lansman says she visits the site and takes many\, many photos\, then uses the photos as inspiration for the painting.\n	About the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts:\nThe Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned and operated by 20 local artists and represents these established artists exhibiting contemporary fine art and fine craft. The Gallery’s offerings include oil\, acrylic and watercolor painting\, sculpture\, pottery\, jewelry\, glass\, scratchboard\, fiber art\, and handcrafted furniture. 121 N. Churton Street\, Hillsborough\, NC 27278. Phone: (919) 732-5001. The gallery is open 10am-6pm Monday – Saturday\, and 12pm-4pm on Sunday.

SUMMARY:So Much Color
DESCRIPTION:Beginning June 24th at the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts\, is a show featuring 3 artists with very different processes and styles. The thing they do have in common is color – hence the show title\, “So Much Color”.\nKaidy Lewis has refined a process of abstract expressionism that brings to the canvas a feeling\, a subject\, or a current affair which she experiences as making no sense.  Her conversation with paint is a subjective\, exploratory\, and investigative process.  Lewis’ paintings are multi-layered and complex; they are a synthesis of inanimate objects and ambiguous figures\, within aesthetics of beauty\, color\, rhythm and design.  This semi-abstract visual art is an endeavor to deconstruct autobiographical chaos into some type of joyous humor that provokes the subconscious in the viewer and makes a space for connection.  Hints are embedded into the canvas in the hope that the conversation in paint quietens the ego and softens the noise of the world.  Lewis sees her practice as a health regimen that can create confidence\, community and compassion.  She was born in the UK and attended art college in London\,  and now works out of two studios located in the Raleigh/Durham area of North Carolina.\nMark Kinsella\, 3D fused glass artist\, combines color and shape with eye-catching results.  His conception of a glass piece begins with a vague idea of color or texture.  As he starts putting it together\, it takes on a life of its own and can end up being totally different than what he had in mind at the beginning.  For him working with glass is a metaphor for life.  When he works with glass\, he is reminded that life\, like glass\, is fragile.  And that something shattered and broken into a million pieces can be recreated into something whole and beautiful again.  Kinsella spent the majority of his life as a photographer in the private sector\, but in 2005 discovered the art of fused glass.  After starting with a small table-top kiln he quickly realized that he was meant to create larger and more complex works.  Kinsella has continued to learn through experimentation and through local workshops\, continually developing his unique style.\nFor this show Pat Merriman has ventured into different styles\, experimenting with pouring acrylic analogous colors mixed with glazing mediums and topping the pour with acrylic inks. It requires 2 days for this background layer to dry before she can add the focal piece or collage. One group of Merriman’s paintings will have a QR code showing that the title of each piece is a familiar song.  A second group is based on her love of the work of African American artist Richard Mayhew\, and is inspired by his strata and vivid colors. Merriman’s very bright landscapes evoke his style and are built of layers upon layers of acrylic color mixes using fan brushes\, sponges\, Q-tips\, and fingers. One piece is a large scene of Merriman’s memories of Emerald Isle\, North Carolina.\nCome visit the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts and be inspired by “So Much Color”.  The show runs from June 24 – July 20. The opening reception will be held during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk on June 27th from 6 – 9 p.m. The Jackson St. Band will play 60s & 70s American roots rock on the patio during the reception. \nIf you’d like a chance to meet these artists and hear about their inspiration and process\, their Artist Talk will be held in the gallery on Saturday\, July 12th at 4pm. \nAbout the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts:\nThe Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned and operated by 20 local artists and represents these established artists exhibiting contemporary fine art and fine craft. The Gallery’s offerings include oil\, acrylic and watercolor painting\, sculpture\, pottery\, jewelry\, glass\, scratchboard\, fiber art\, and handcrafted furniture. 121 N. Churton Street\, Hillsborough\, NC 27278. Phone: (919) 732-5001. The gallery is open 10am-6pm Monday – Saturday\, and 12pm-4pm on Sunday.

SUMMARY:Elemental Form
DESCRIPTION:Artists Nell Chandler\, Ellie Reinhold\, and Evelyn Ward chose the title\, Elemental Form\, for their show\, connecting the lines\, shapes\, and textures in Ward’s pottery\, the designs etched into the metals of Chandler’s jewelry\, and the visual inspiration from nature for Reinhold’s paintings.\nNell Chandler began as a painter and printmaker. With the gift of a beginning class in jewelry making\, she fell in love with metal in her very first class. Eventually Chandler integrated her painting\, printmaking and jewelry fabrication into the work she creates today. Over the years she has been exploring new techniques and combines them into her work. Her “narrative” work tells stories filled with recurring figures and symbols. Often the wearer of a piece of her jewelry will share with her a story of their own. Those special moments affirm her choice of medium to share her art with the world.\nEllie Reinhold’s approach to painting is very loose and organic. The spark might be something very small and elemental\, a particular color combination\, a feeling of distance\, of contrast. Reinhold seeks through painting\, taking a leap of faith. A painting really develops from the act itself – application of color and line. With each blank canvas\, she starts from nowhere with nothing\, first adding random color\, then random marks. The title of the show – usually chosen long before the work begins – can also be a guiding force.  As she paints\, words or phrases come to mind\, and she finds her title in these words. For Reinhold the process is one of clarifying. Canvases begin chaotically\, unformed\, and she seeks the final image through the practice of painting.\nThis winter Evelyn Ward spent time experimenting with a new palette. Drawn to photos of abandoned factories\, with their intersecting and overlapping colors\, her new work references lines of the built environment. Loving what the passage of time and effects of weather do to surfaces\, Ward is using a technique called mono-print transferring to decorate the surfaces.  She paints slip onto cut pieces of paper and then transfers them onto the pot to create the design. She loves the imperfections that this process leaves on the surface of the pot with the underlying dark clay body showing through\, as well as the clean lines she can get from the process.   \nElemental Form\, May 27 – June 22\, Opening reception May 30\, 6-9:00 p.m. Carolina Campfire will perform music on the patio in front of the gallery during the art walk.  \nThe show will include a talk by the artists in the gallery on Saturday\, June 14th at 4pm. \nAbout the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts: Owned and operated by 20 local artists\, HGA’s offerings include painting\, sculpture\, pottery\, weaving\, jewelry\, glass\, scratchboard\, and handcrafted furniture. 121 N. Churton Street\, Hillsborough\, NC 27278. Phone: (919) 732-5001. The gallery is open 10am-6pm Monday – Saturday\, and 12pm-4pm on Sunday.

SUMMARY:IT’S ALL ABOUT THE STORY\, Vol. Xl: Jeffery Beam
DESCRIPTION:In 2013\, the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts began an annual show highlighting the work of a local writer by responding visually to his or her work. In the past\, this show has been inspired by the work of writers with local ties: Michael Malone\, Lee Smith\, Allan Gurganus\, Jill McCorkle\, Nancy Peacock\, John Bemis\, Elizabeth Keckly\, composer Billy Strayhorn\, poet Jaki Shelton Green\, and singer/songwriter Mary Rocap.\n	The work of North Carolina poet\, Jeffery Beam\, will be the focus of this year’s show. The gallery’s 20 artists have each chosen a poem from Mr. Beam’s body of work as inspiration for a piece of art in their chosen medium.\n	Sculptor Lynn Wartski has based her piece\, “Dryad Slumber\,” on Beam’s poem\, “The Green Man’s Man\,” published in 2010 in the collection “From Gospel Earth.” Most of her recent sculptural work has dealt with animal forms\, so this was a welcome opportunity to create a figurative piece; in “Dryad Slumber\,” Wartski represents a figure who blurs the lines between plant and animal\, giving the viewer a peek at the inner life of a forest nymph. Wartski writes\, “For me\, it is usually a turn of phrase that catches my attention.” She found inspiration in the poem “The Green Man’s Man.”\n	Scratchboard artist\, Sally Terrell\, was inspired by Jeffery Beam’s poem\, “Credo.” Terrell was especially drawn to Beam’s idea of communicating through unspoken words rather than the ones that are said. The truth of this message\, as well as the addition of a chickadee in the last stanza\, confirmed Terrell’s choice of this poem for her beautiful piece\, “The Periwinkle and the Chickadee.”\n	Glass artist\, Pringle Teeter\, chose the poem\, “Paracelsus: Concerning the Iris in the Vase\,” which includes a line about “The glass-blower’s tincture.” Teeter focused on the lines of the poem that include inspiring colors to create her two glass pieces. The sparkling green of her vessel\, “Luna Moth\,” and the undulating purple sides of her piece\, “Purple Petals\,” are both nods to the poem.\n	Nancy Smith created a portrait inspired by Jeffery Beam’s poem\, “Ars Poetica: the Queen.” Her portrait\, “Following the Goddess\, Jewel of the Hive\,” was created using a variety of media\, including bees wax. In describing her inspiration from the poem\, Smith writes\, “I was reminded that\, like the queen bee\, we exist in a world of our own creation. And like her\, our creation is built not by us alone\, but always in collaboration with others. I think her message is that there is a great responsibility in discerning guidance from other beings in our lives.”\n	The images in Jeffery Beam’s poetry provided fertile inspiration for the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts’ 20 visual artists. Their work will be on display from February 11th through March 23rd with a reception in the gallery on February 28th from 6-9pm during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk. In addition\, HGA will host a reading by Mr. Beam in the gallery on Sunday\, February 23rd from 4-6pm. Both events are free and open to the public.  \nAbout the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts:\nThe Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned and operated by 20 local artists and represents these established artists exhibiting contemporary fine art and fine craft. The Gallery’s offerings include painting\, sculpture\, scratchboard\, ceramics\, jewelry\, glass\, metals\, encaustic\, enamel\, fiber art\, weaving\, gourd sculptures\, and wood. 121 N. Churton Street\, Hillsborough\, NC 27278. Phone: (919) 732-5001. The gallery is open 10am-6pm Monday – Saturday\, and 12pm-4pm on Sunday.

SUMMARY:Natural Patterns: Flora and Fauna
DESCRIPTION:Abstracted botanical paintings by Ellie Snow\, figurative sculpture by Lynn Wartski. In the gallery July 23rd through August 25th. Opening reception during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk\, July 26th\, 6-9pm with music provided by Lars Barbary and the Close Shaves. \nFor painter Ellie Snow\, painting is an escape\, a window into a fairy tale world where she can ponder the beauty and complexity of life\, and the stories that repeat themselves\, like patterns\, through time. \nSnow’s artworks begin with nature photographs taken while exploring. “At home\, I collage\, edit\, and make double exposures to create a scene that is playful and mysterious. I think of each painting as an introduction to a story about life’s fits and starts\, imperfection\, darkness\, light\, magic\, weirdness\, and beauty.” \nSnow loves the plants she paints\, but is equally interested in the real and imagined history of where they grow and the shadowy spaces surrounding them. “Are these shadow spaces a sanctuary\, a refuge\, a nest? Or do they draw us into some darker\, more ominous place? How does perspective filter what we see and how we interpret it? In this complicated world\, how can we decipher what is real and what isn’t? How do we hold all this joy and grief?” \nLast year artist Lynn Wartski started to treat the surface of her anthropomorphic sculptures as an additional canvas. She created animal figures that had bold flowers\, nautical “tattoos”\, and wintery motifs on them. Liking the results\, Wartski decided to carry that idea into the sculptures for this year’s show – but with a twist. “Instead of just thematic or decorative elements\, I began with creatures that had distinctive natural patterns\, known in the fashion world as “animal prints.” I altered and morphed those distinctive markings. What emerged is a rather unique menagerie. Among them are a “tie dyed” giraffe\, a paisley pony\, and a “zentangled” zebra.” \nIn a piece titled “Yuri\,” Wartski paid homage to dear friend\, a writer and quilt artist\, by creating a wall hanging sea turtle. The turtle’s shell appears to be a crazy quilt of felted sections and fabric from Yuri’s quilt stash. A different type of natural pattern\, a life cycle\, is honored in her sculpture “Brood XIX.” This cicada with a megaphone recalls the multiple weeks of this late spring that had an insect driven soundtrack. \nNatural Patterns: Flora and Fauna will be on display at the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts from July 23rd through August 25th\, 2024 with an opening reception during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk on July 26th from 6-9pm. Music at the opening is provided by “Lars Barbary and the Close Shaves.” \nAbout the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts:\nThe Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned and operated by 21 local artists and represents these established artists exhibiting contemporary fine art and fine craft. The Gallery’s offerings include The Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned by 21 local artists featuring oil\, acrylic and watercolor paintings\, sculpture\, photography\, photomontage\, glass arts\, jewelry\, handcrafted furniture\, pottery\, scratchboard\, painted gourd sculptures and mixed media. 121 N.

SUMMARY:Color and Form
DESCRIPTION:Mixed metal jewelry by Nell Chandler\, abstracted landscape paintings by Ellie Reinhold\, hand-made functional pottery by Evelyn Ward. In the gallery June 25th through July 21st. Opening reception during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk\, June 28th\, 6-9pm. The Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned by 21 local artists featuring painting\, sculpture\, photography\, digital art\, photomontage\, glass arts\, jewelry\, handcrafted furniture\, pottery\, and mixed media. 121 N. Churton Street\, Hillsborough NC. Hours: Monday through Saturday 10-6\, Sunday 12 – 4. For more information about the show visit www.HillsboroughGallery.com \n“When we throw around titles for our featured artists’ shows we try to suggest titles all three of us are familiar with and challenged by” says jeweler Nell Chandler. The title Color and Form got her thinking of how she regularly uses all sorts of mixed media to embellish her jewelry creations with color. “For weeks I have been forming rings around ring mandrels and forming cuffs around cuff mandrels and incorporating gemstones for my color: purple amethysts\, pink tourmalines\, green peridots\, sky-blue topazes\, yellow citrines\, red garnets\, and blue aquamarines to create a clean\, polished look. I love the way a united title can send me in an inspiring new direction.” \n“I would say that I’m staying within my recent purview of little structures” explains painter Ellie Reinhold\, “but running with the title (Color and Form) in trying to shake it up a little bit with both a different approach to color and new venues for it. We’ll see if I manage it!”  \n“Color\, form\, function. Not necessarily in that order\,” says potter Evelyn Ward.  “Balancing the shape of a pot (or its form)\, how it will look on the surface and how it will be used are basically the job requirements of being a potter. The great thing is that this is an endless pursuit\, an endless endeavor.”  \nEnsuring that the pots she makes perform their function while being a pleasure to use\, is her primary focus. “Take a vase for example\, I’ve found a wide base and somewhat narrow neck allows the stems of the flowers to fan out and therefore the blooms do\, too\, making flower arranging effortless. But then I also want the vase to be enjoyable on its own when not in use and that’s where that dance between color and form come into play.” \nColor and Form will be on display at the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts from June 25th through July 24th\, 2024 with an opening reception during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk on May 31st from 6-9pm. Music at the opening provided by The Jackson Street Band\, Mike Gasperino\, David Lobe and Larry Vellani. \nAbout the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts:\nThe Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned and operated by 21 local artists and represents these established artists exhibiting contemporary fine art and fine craft.

SUMMARY:Mystic Chords
DESCRIPTION:Photographic montage and mixed media by Catharine Carter\, artistic fine furniture by Pete Rodrigues\, impressionist landscape paintings by Jude Lobe. In the gallery April 23rd through May 26th. Opening reception during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk\, April 26th\, 6-9pm. \n“To ‘strike a chord’ is defined as evoking an emotional response\,” according to artist Catharine Carter. “For me the idea of Mystic Chords are ones that vibrate or resonate deep within one’s soul.” Carter uses photographic montage and mixed media to compose storytelling narratives that explore deep feelings in order to awaken dreams and memories.  “By exploring my inner landscape\,” she declares\, “I can address my insecurities\, fears\, hopes and dreams to find harmony and balance\, insight and inspiration.” \nArtist Jude Lobe’s work for Mystic Chords is an eclectic mix of painting and sculpture\, an appreciation of the natural world and the humans – past and present – who live in it. “Shamanic tradition refers to All That Is\, as the Web of Life where nothing happens in a vacuum. One thought or action affects another. Everything\, living and non-living\, is inter-connected.” Lobe refers to them as Mystic Chords\, and feels that recognizing this inter-connectedness is essential for creating a sustainable and equitable way of life. “My artworks in this show are my abstract expressions of nature.” \n“I still feel new to the gallery and to the art world as a whole\,” says woodworker Pete Rodrigues. “For the last 26 years\, I have created pieces out of wood.” However\, becoming a member of the gallery has allowed me to be more creative\, using my imagination to discover new possibilities. The process of pushing the boundaries of creativity and design within my pieces of furniture is what motivates me as an artist. For my upcoming show I’m excited about what this year’s growth has led me to create!”   \nMystic Chords will be on display at the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts from April 23rd through May 26th\, with an opening reception during Hillsborough’s Last Friday Art Walk on April 26th from 6-9pm. \nAbout the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts\nThe Hillsborough Gallery of Arts is owned and operated by 21 local artists and represents these established artists exhibiting contemporary fine art and fine craft.
