Providence Gallery in Charlotte, NC,
Features Works by Lesley Powell, Angela Smith and SOPHIA
Providence Gallery in Charlotte, NC is pleased
to announce the opening of its newest show celebrating the still
life. The work of three women, Lesley Powell, Angela Smith and
SOPHIA will be featured in this exhibit, which will be on view
from Feb. 1 - 28, 2011.
Compositions will range from traditional subject matter including
florals and fruit to interior vignettes.
Angela Smith's paintings capture the viewer's imagination through
the artist's vivid use of translucent color and strong, textural
brush strokes. Working from photographs, Smith uses delineated
lines to draw the eye across the canvas and emphasize every detail
of her paintings.
For fellow artist Lesley Powell, interior scenes are a favorite
subject. Powell often finds inspiration in the rooms of her own
home and other favorite spots, anywhere she senses a true feeling
of intimacy she can share with others on canvas. A versatile artist,
this show will also include examples of her traditional still
life works featuring fruit and fine china groupings.
SOPHIA has garnered a loyal following for her lush, color-laden
paintings of flowers, candy and the ephemeral. The Greek and French
artist brings a Mediterranean effervescence to her joyful tabletop
renderings, which are reminiscent of Chagall. Her romantic whimsical
works truly celebrate love of live.
