THE ROVING ARTISTS: AS I WENT WALKING
Eleven artists meet weekly, paint in diverse media and styles, encourage and learn with one another, and find inspiration in the joy of living here and now.
WAYNE HARJULA Harjula has travelled the world, learning about the art of glass and now the undersea world from which he draws his inspiration for his unorthodox and purely functional medusoid chandeliers.
June 02 - July 19
THE CROSSING: STEWART STINSON
With vibrant, sweeping strokes of oil on canvas and animated video, Stinson unveils the complex aesthetics of sea, shore, and sky that surround those who travel on the Horseshoe Bay - Langdale ferry route.
Stinson first exhibited his work - and that to the public's acclaim - in GPAG's 2006 exhibition Water. The Gallery looks forward to hosting his one-man exhibition.
Artist' events TBA
April 22nd - May 31st
New work by PATRICIA LEIGH FORST: Clay Wall Murals and Sculpture
Forst's work has been an evolution ... wheel thrown pottery evolving into delicately carved porcelain pieces ... into her present dramatic, strongly executed wall murals and now, evocative sculptures.
This exhibition is made possible by the generous financial support of Dr. Lorne Berman, Sechelt Dental Centre.
