I am thrilled to be starting 2010 off right with a two-person show at the Lakewood Cultural Center in Lakewood, Colorado. Inspired by an exhibition Jim Peterson and I had at Space Gallery last year, Lakewood Cultural Center is hosting an exhibition of our work entitled, Color. The show runs from January 21 to April 4, 2010. I will be at the artist reception on January 21 from 5 to 7 pm. Please stop by if you are in the area. I would love to see you there!
The Press Release:
Color
How artists use color to convey emotions, movement and influence our perceptions.
We take for granted that artists use color in their work. Their placement of color is precise, the blues, the greens, the choice made with a discerning eye. This exhibit explores how different artists use color in their work - some to illicit emotion, some to capture movement and others to shake up our senses.
Laura Guese / Jim Peterson
The same subject matter, and the same palette of colors, yet the outcome of both artists, Laura Guese and Jim Peterson is dramatically different. The sky has the power to evoke a full spectrum of true sentiments, which is the reason two painters of the Western sky, Jim Peterson and Laura Guese feel strongly compelled to speak through the subject matter of limitless atmosphere. While both artists reside in the West, their interpretations of the Western sky vary greatly from one another. When exhibited together, the works of Laura Guese and Jim Peterson entice the viewer with consistent colors in both works while each create entirely unique expressions of light.
