Allure Of The Sea

Allure Of The Sea

Water is a daily part of life, and it is one of the most vital and abundant compounds on Earth. More than 70 percent of the Earth’s surface is water covered, whether it is the oceans, the rivers or the seas. In the upcoming two-artist exhibition Oceana at Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, South Carolina, Adam Hall and June Stratton will explore “the allure of the sea while reflecting on our relationship with it.”

Hall’s large-scale paintings are close-up views of the ocean’s waves. They show the constant movement with no land in sight, just an endless bounty of water. “Because there is such a common thread in most all of us that is drawn to the water, the painting can quickly connect with the viewer,” Hall says. “That connection is so satisfying to be a part of. Hopefully these paintings can remind others of the connection we have to the ocean and its importance to us.”

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.
