Mid-Summer Group Exhibition 

Exploring the Monumental Art of Landscape

July 24 - September 15

Carlton Gallery’s 39th Mid-Summer Group Exhibition – “Exploring the Monumental Art of Landscape” is planned with a drop in Opening Reception on July 24, 11-5. 

Landscapes in many styles projecting the artists’ interpretation of the high country’s surrounding scenic vistas, waterfalls and the bucolic countryside fill the gallery.

Andrew Braitman renders colorful abstracted landscapes while Egidio Antonaccio paints realistic compositions in oils.
Amos Westmoreland’s work shows local tableaus while Monique Carr landscapes concentrate on her beautiful, soft color palette.
Holly Glasscock’s landscapes project a poignant moment in time. Plein air painter, Linda Apriletti captures on canvas the essence of the landscape.

Abstracted landscapes by Kate Worm painted in bold, bright colors reflect the mood of a particular area.

An outstanding landscape by Laine Frances is a local attraction, The Carriage House at Cone Manor.  

​

Karin Neuvirth uses primarily a palette knife to create textural, impressionist paintings. A palette knife allows for unique and random shapes of color that she strategically places to generate a cohesive composition in which bright colors are the dominant element.

This 39th Mid-Summer Group Exhibition showcases contemporary work in oil, acrylic, and mixed media encompassing many styles and techniques by Toni Carlton, Debbie Arnold, Lori Hill, Laura Hughes, Tonya Bottomley, Trena McNabb and Vae Hamilton.
Guest artist, Jean Rupprecht, exhibits landscapes of mountain vistas with exciting cloud formations. 

A collection of figurative paintings of “ordinary people doing ordinary things” in his signature styles of elongated and cubism by the late Warren Dennis is displayed for this Mid-Summer Exhibition.

New blown glass works by Robinson Scott, along with assembled glass by Fred Mead are featured in this exhibition. Carved and turned wood by Bobby Phillips, John Melius, and George McMurdy, along with new clay sculptures by Ralph Mello and Eric Reichard are a visual delight.
