We welcome the public to our August Art Walk on Friday, August 3rd, from 5pm to 8pm. Many of our artists will be on hand to discuss their work. In addition, we’ll have the customary refreshments.
Each month we feature new works by several of our artists in the front area of the gallery, with the opening of each show occurring during Art Walk. This month we’ll be showcasing the work of Janalee Welch, John Wood, Mary Beth Morrison, and Nancy Davies Tang.
Mary Beth Morrison as our newest member. She is currently painting with soft pastels, loving their rich, vibrant pure color. She also loves plein air painting.
Janalee Welch has worked as an artist for over 30 years creating art in a variety of media. She loves clean lines; geometric shapes; and striking color and contrast all of which she employs in her art as she takes her inspiration from nature.
John Wood considers his paintings a reflection of himself. “I look at the world and paint those images that move me.“ John is mainly a landscape painter working in watercolor and oils. He also dabbles with painting animals and the human figure.
Nancy Davies Tang is a self-taught glass artist who has developed an expertise in glass fusing over many years. She creates both beautiful dichroic glass jewelry pieces and dynamic glass sculptures reminiscent of the garden, fields, and ocean views around her rural Maine home.
Art Space Gallery is located at 405 Main Street in Rockland. The gallery features eighteen artists who work in various media and genres. August hours are 10 am to 5 pm, Mondays through Saturdays, 1pm – 4pm Sundays. Visit our website for more information at www.artspacemaine.com.
