SUSAN PROCTOR ARTIST SHOWCASE

Fri., May 10, 7-8 p.m.

Join us for Susan Proctor’s Gallery Showcase. Proctor will be in the Watson Gallery discussing her work and answering guest questions. Your ticket includes a cocktail before the event.

Artist Statement:

Taste, touch, smell sight and sound create an awareness of surroundings and sensibilities.

Layers of acrylic paint and collage create heightened depth and interest. Abstract shapes and forms allow the eye to move through the canvas whether the subject be objective or non-objective. The creative experience, for me, is both conscious and subliminal. It is a spiritual place within that produces a work that has the ability to evoke response from the viewer.

STEVE DINBERG ARTIST SHOWCASE

Sat., May 11, 7-8 p.m.

Join us for Steve Dinberg’s Gallery Showcase. Dinberg will be in the Watson Gallery discussing his work and answering guest questions. Your ticket includes a cocktail before the event.

Artist Statement:

For me photography has always been fun and full of magic. As a kid, it was fun to compose, fun to capture, magic to spend time in the darkroom developing and processing film, but most of all, fun to share my photos.

It was fun to seek out and engage people, and magic to travel to new lands or find the unusual. It was magic to convey an emotion or make a point and touch others through visual imagery that I created. As an adult, photography continues to be more fun and magical than I ever dreamed! Despite changes in technology that have occurred during my lifetime, the aesthetics of photography remains much the same. The creative mind of the photographer is still the most important element needed to create a great photo. The camera doesn’t create a photograph, it’s merely a tool. We still need to be aware, and have the willingness to take time to interact with our subjects, and to learn seek and experiment with new processes.  But most of all, never forget the process that allows us to create.
