Most of my works are painted as a mimicry of traditional portraiture, but are (as I see them) vehicles to another concept entirely. Almost all of them have a very tongue-in-cheek wryness about them as I explore themes ranging from self-image issues to historical oddities to the dissection of fairy tales and popular culture. Glimpses of shaded eyes, unknown intentions, transformations, and things unearthed. Thinking about how we slide through a spectrum of selves, all of them... contained inside us, in one person."

Now on view... Stephen Dinsmore "Sparrow #2 oil on canvas 24" x 30" ... Dinsmore, a Nebraska-born artist, presents paintings that testify to the vitality of representational art as a means of communicating visual poetry. His paintings may border on the abstract being a synthesis from several sources; in other instances they may convey a more specific sense of place and time. Sounds straightforward but so many things are considered: the creamy light of late afternoon on landscape; the abstract beauty of marks on the side of a train car; new snow that reshapes all it touches; an interior filled with color and reverie; the riveting beauty of a vase of flowers; a fly fisherman in shadow; a disregarded corner of town; a found image... "I try to make a painting that has in it at least something of the magic and mystery of the thing; the alchemy; the thing that excites. contact [email protected] for inquiries #bluegallerykc #stephendinsmore #contemporaryart #oilpainting #contemporarylandscape #crossroadsartsdistrict See more

Now on view... Amy Abshier "A Glimmer of Interest" oil on canvas 20.5" x 17.75" fr. "While painting this body of work, I was thinking idly of magic, darkness, and the feminine, and half-formed, vague images began to surface. Glimpses of shaded eyes, unknown intentions, transformations, and things unearthed. Thinking about how we slide through a spectrum of selves, all of them contained inside us, in one person.... I wanted to give these tenuous fancies some substance, some life and weight, but still preserve a bit of mystery. And so I began to translate them into paintings." contact [email protected] for inquiries #bluegallerykc #oilpainting #painting #portrait #amyabshier #artwork #art #artist #figurativeart #crossroadsartsdistrict See more

SAVE THE DATE! SARAH WILLIAMS - INTERSTATE PHANTOMS - Nov 5, 2020 "For this body of work, I was recalling the many car trips spent going from one area of the state to another, often at night. Living in such a rural setting, it’s not uncommon to find communities quite spaced out. Often with about 30 miles of uninhabited farmland between each. At night, that distance can be almost meditative to travel through. Usually, the first thing one might encounter when nearing a... community is a lighted sign at the outskirts. In the uninterrupted blackness of the rural night, those signs become some strange kind of beacon. Their uniqueness and history also make them wonderful landmarks unlike the ubiquitous golden arches or big box store signs that seem to blur together from place to place with their commonality."
