A new show at Gallery 1710, “Summer Showcase,” opens with the best of the best from our gallery artists.
From landscape, seascape, cityscape, portraits, still life to abstraction these paintings excel in their creativity. Each painting is an exploration of the artist’s feelings and their ability to express that, be it in watercolour, oil, acrylic or mixed media.
A stunning portrait by Leah Terpsma captures her subject, bathing her in ethereal light, juxtaposing her with another portrait in the painting creating a beautiful narrative.
Gillian Olson’s intricate ink drawing of a maple seed makes us stop and appreciate the wonder of nature. There are landscapes that take one into the forest, breathing in the atmosphere and hearing the wind and waters of streams and waterfalls rushing by. By using the elements of light, textures and colour our artists have produced a winning show.
Summer Showcase opens Friday, June 30 and continues until July 30.
The gallery is open Friday through Sunday, from noon to 4 p.m. Please come and enjoy the exhibition located at 1710 - 56th Street, just north, across from the South Delta Recreation Centre. Visit us online at: southdeltaartistsguild.com.
