May Gallery Walk

Big Opening Night for Ryan Lane at the Eye On Art Gallery as we sold several of his new works. Ryan is in the middle talking to Greg and Mary Huebner. Greg was his teacher at Wabash College. Greg and I were at SIU at the same time completing our MFAs.

Greg Huebner

Untitled #2
Acrylic on Canvas
36"x36"

Another fine work from Indy painter Greg Huebner. Greg does not title his works, bu I want to call it "Salute"  I see the movement of a salute in the calligraphic blue strokes and a dominant red, white and blue. If you buy it, you can call it whatever you want.

Gallery Ad

 This will be the gallery ad that will appear in TravelIN for their Summer Issue. There will also be a 16 page Gallery Guide available in the gallery

Rita Spalding

Oil on Canvas
24"x36

I am showing paintings by Rita Spalding, now at Eye On Art.

Rita's approach to painting is fairly traditional in terms of subject and medium, but hardly pure representational. Her joy in painting is creating quiet, poetic paintings with deep, rich colors, compelling subject matter, and concise elegant compositions.

Ryan Lane

The current paintings by Ryan incorporate many of the same tools and materials used in the furniture making process and give his paintings a very unique texture and depth. The paintings have both spontaneous  and craftsmen like qualities which give his work a undeniable vibrancy.

Artist Statement;

"I am interested in painting horizons or borders and hope to capture the mystery of an approaching event.  Whether the impression is foreboding or optimistic is entirely to be determined by the viewer."

Jeffries Glass

Red Glass
5.5" high x 12"diameter

Christopher Jefferies' unique style and distinct designs reflect the hand of a dedicated and master craftsman. Most recently he was honored with an opportunity to teach at historic Corning Museum of Glass in New York. Eye On Art is showing 5 of his bowls in varied colors.

Rick Bennett

Rick Bennett will be the featured artist for the April Second Saturday Gallery Walk in the Carmel Arts and Design District. Rick will be here to discuss his paintings with you. Opening Reception 5-10pm

Rick Bennett

Eye On Art Gallery is delighted to show a series of works by Rick Bennett. Rick is a nationally known artist whose works reside in over 100 public, academic, corporate and private collections. Bennett holds an MFA from Indiana University and is a Professor of Art at Hanover College. His landscape and water paintings are a visual delight. His most recent award includes Best in
Show at the Horizon Landscape Exhibition, 2010.

Christopher Jeffries

New glass works arriving this Spring from California glassmaker Christopher Jeffries. I will start with 5 multicolor bowls, 11"x5.5"

Wendy Franklin

Key Bridge Diptych
Each Panel 20"x20"

The works of Wendy Franklin are referred to as Sculptural Fabric. The works are sometimes mounted or may become a free form in space or on a wall. Wendy has a great sense of color and design and the tactile quality is always inviting.

Scott Christensen

I made two fantastic purchases when I attended the Scott Christensen Workshop in 2006. I am now offering these for purchase through the Eye On Art Gallery. Most of you painters know that very few of Scott's studies are made available. The sizes are 10"x12" and 8"x10" and in hand carved with gold leaf.

Clayton Beck III

Jeonghan Yun

Three new works arrived today from Jeonghan Yun. The works are mounted on canvas support and measure 26"x26"

Ryan Lane

Three small works by Ryan Lane. Ryan's works have sold well this year with a plan for a one person exhibit at the gallery next year.

Gallery Panoramic

I just purchased the iPhone 5 and am testing the camera panorama feature. A useful tool for showing the gallery exhibits. A little distorted, but a better feel for the space. Click on image for larger view.
