Buster's Bistro Eclectic Cuisine in Columbia, SC, Features Works by Alicia Leeke and Cindy Roddey

Buster's Bistro Eclectic Cuisine in Columbia, SC, celebrates the holiday season with the exhibit, Color Frenzy, featuring artworks using watercolor, acrylic, pastels, and colored pencils. Coming together from two different perspectives, Alicia Leeke and Cindy Roddey explore color through a variety of mediums. Both local artists have exhibited in the Southeast. The exhibit will be on view from Dec. 12 through Jan. 2, 2005.

Cindy Roddey, an Atlanta, GA, native residing in Columbia studied with acclaimed AWS juror Marbry Hill Brown while attending Queens College in Charlotte, NC, and with Alalin pastel artist Sarah Miatt. This collection seeks to explore color through non-traditional subject matter and her recent works reflect Miatt's unique perspective of color that is often overlooked in nature.

Alicia Leeke, a local emerging artist, will present her new acrylic works including Last Call, plus several works from her miniature series including La Petite Cantada, and A Star Is Born. Leeke, a post-impressionistic style painter, prefers landscapes and quaint street scenes. Her work strives to capture the essence of every-day events, converting ordinary scenes into lively images. Complementing each painting is a robust palette with textured acrylics full of rich reds, vibrant oranges, shocking blues and sharp white accents.
