THE PRESENCE OF A Narrative

The Portrait Society of America recently hosted a quarter-century celebration of The Art of the Portrait, a yearly gathering of artists from all around the world who come together to share ideas and inspirations, and to exchange techniques of fine art portraiture and figurative work. The highlight of the four-day event is an exhibition of 20 finalists’ works that were part of the The International, a premier competition of drawing, painting, and sculpture focused on the figure. These finalists were selected from 3,075 entries representing 48 states and 57 countries. The selected finalists traveled to Washington, D.C., with their original work for final judging. Many traveled far to see their work on display, from across the United States and also from Australia, the United Kingdom, China and India.

Next Exit New York

Coming off his series that focused on San Francisco and Los Angeles freeway signs, artist Eric Nash’s sights are now set on New York. 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.
