Her paintings, although done in an abstract expression style, never shy away from reality. They depict very real moments reflective of life experiences. This summer, RJD Gallery in Romeo, Michigan, will mount the exhibition Soul to Soul, featuring old and new compositions by the artist. The decades of work on display reflect a variety of series, which will show the breadth of her influences.
“Ann Tanksley’s work expresses deep lifelong love and appreciation of people and the human condition—the struggles, triumphs and the jubilations. She communicates that love on the deepest level, soul to soul, through poignant portrayals of life’s moments filled with both drama and joy,” says Joi Jackson Perle, director of RJD Gallery. “A conversation between friends, an afternoon spent fishing or a night on the town are easily relatable scenes that are powerful reminders that these seemingly unremarkable moments are often the most memorable and profound. Tanksley’s paintings feature elements of abstract expressionism that add a depth of humanity and a visual narrative that all can enjoy, and she consistently excels with master painterly skills, learned over years of determination and earnest time at her easel.”

Now on view at George Billis Gallery's Manhattan location are seven of Nash's new oil paintings and two drawings that explore the signage of New York City freeways. Although Nash's work is tightly rendered, he doesn’t consider himself a photorealist, but rather someone who utilizes those techniques to express ideas.
