On display at City Hall Galleria, The Poppy Fields and Trees Series by Richmond artist Ginny Wilkie. This series of paintings represents the simple beauty in nature in the form of vibrant colors and touchable, tactile textures. The world is a three dimensional arena and Wilkie says that "I like to try and translate some of the dimensionality into my paintings through the use of pastes and palette knives. I am intrigued with the use of iridescent paints which I find uplifting, so I introduce these colours into the skies and throughout the paintings for a touch of fantasy." Wilkie's paintings are meant to be an illusion of reality, focussing more on the textures, shadows and light rather on precise interpretation of nature.
Galleria exhibitions are presented by Richmond Art Gallery.
This event is for All Ages.
This is an accessible site.
