Kevin H. Adams, the Gallery’s resident artist, unveils new paintings from Virginia, Cape Cod, and his travels. Kevin is a member of New York City’s Salmagundi Club, the oldest association of artists in the U.S., and also of The Provincetown Art Association and Museum. His work is regularly on display in both venues. His focus when capturing the landscapes he witnesses is on the light and its impact on color as we see it.

Aster da Fonseca is a self-taught artist born in Volta Redonda, in the state of Rio di Janeiro, Brazil. He moved to Washington, D.C., in 1995 and began painting in 1998. Gay Street Gallery has had the pleasure of showing Aster’s work in recent years and is excited to feature him in this new exhibition. Aster paints and cuts tape, applying it to the paper or board, to create his gorgeous, detailed, abstract landscapes.

Still intrigued by the challenge of arranging and capturing their subjects’ ephemeral existence, artists remain passionate about flowers. They bring their signature brushwork, palette preferences, and vision to blank picture plane and set about giving new life to an age-old tradition.

Joan Wiberg, Davette Leonard, and Kathy Chumley masterfully take on the challenge of floral still life.
