Gourdface from the Expressions Spotlight on Art Show at Blue Morning Gallery

“Expressions”

Previous Spotlight on Art

As artists, our artwork is a unique expression of our observations, such as psychological, visual or spiritual. These observations are conveyed in very personal and unique ways.

One trait artists possess in common is that they are keen observers. As keen observers, artists are driven to make expressions regarding these findings. These may be conveyed in the form of a visual reflection, and illuminating insight or empathetic response. Thus, the resulting artwork may be realistic, abstract, impressionistic or expressionistic in form. But most all are some types of expressions of observations.

As all four of us are very different individuals, our observations and expressions will be vastly different. These expressions are what makes art so interesting and meaningful to artists and observers. It is a form of communication which, though without words, often results in being very clear, touching and enlightening.

The art of music, drama, dance and many other forms add a wonderful dimension to our lives.

Please enjoy these expressions we’ve created and displayed to share with you.
