Suzanne Francis- select works

April 1st- May 30th

My two favorite mediums are Gouache and woodblock. Gouache is a more opaque watercolor with a matt finish and a dense pigment load. Rich velvety colors can be achieved, since gouache can be carefully applied in layers, something that is difficult with watercolor. Wood blocks are wonderfully tactile and graphic. The carving process is much more physical than painting. It is satisfying to muscle an image into being, and enjoyable to carve beautiful curves and lines.

My subject matter and my hanging style are eclectic. I enjoy drawing and painting friends and family, local flora and fauna, and local landscapes. Since I was born and raised in the greater Philadelphia region, I am familiar with a staggering amount of beautiful urban landscapes to try to portray. I want to express the beauty beneath our feet, to acknowledge and love our surroundings.

Ginger del Rey- select works

March 1st- 31st

Ginger del Rey paints photo-realistic nudes of friends, lovers and women she admires. The process often begins with photographing the subjects then editing on the computer, before oils and gold leaf are applied to canvas. Having spent years focused on the commercial arts, costume design and theatre scene design and mural work del Rey arrived at easel painting to capture and express the female forms in a up close and exciting fashion. Honing her skills while developing a unique style of portraiture in a range of styles from photo-realistic to impressionistic, the paintings reveal an adoration of the inherent feminine beauty. “I mix my love of saturated color with a retro dreamy, sunny, sexy 70’s light.” The aim is to capture the essence of the subject and unveil her secrets. At times she adheres to the original plan exactly, while other times allowing for spontaneous deviation. Texture, hues, saturation and light sources are essential to the composition and development of these works. The details, expressions, and palettes will attract attention and unequivocally demand the viewer to linger long with each figure.

Morgan Craig- select works

January 15- February 28th

Craig is known for large scale works that document adventures into spaces across the globe few know of let alone witness in person, from abandoned warehouses to amusement parks. Luscious paintings that depict in detail the layers of time on surfaces once in use and now forgotten.
