"Fire & Water" - Upcoming Show at Art On Broadway
Nikki Dilbeck and Sue Jensen will share the spotlight in July at Art On Broadway Gallery.
Bold, bright and energetic describes the expressionistic paintings of these two Portland artists. Nikki paints mainly with acrylics and creates highly textured abstracted landscapes and nonrepresentational paintings. She invites the viewer to step closer, to see beyond the face of the painting and into the elements and ideas waiting to be discovered in it. Sue works in acrylic, encaustic and collage, and creates works that suggest a subject without actually painting one. She feels her style requires her to focus her attention on strong composition. Both artists love color, which makes this duo's exhibit the perfect summer show!
A reception to honor Nikki and Sue will be held on Saturday, July 9, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. The show runs through July 30 during regular gallery hours - Tuesdays through Saturdays, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
