For the start of the Fall Art Season, the gallery is showcasing Michael Janis, Allegra Marquart and Drew Storm Graham.
I stopped by for a quick sneak peak when the artwork was just finished being installed on the two levels and they look great!
Here are some quick snaps (forgive the quality of the cell phone camera) :
 |
| Allegra Marquart’s new sandcarved glass panels showcase her quirky stories. Her work plays with the translucency of the glass medium so beautifully. |
 |
| Drew Storm Graham’s colorful, wild, 3-D panels grab your attention! |
 |
| Drew’s work references tattoo and graffiti art – very fresh and powerful! |
 |
| Michael Janis’ panels look better than the photos – great depth to the pieces! Love the color! |
This gallery crawl on Friday is a must!
