Leslie Patterson |  Early Morning HuntEarly Morning Hunt
The result of observation and inspiration drawn from the excitement, the focus and the heart of this Brittany. It is a snowy early morning and the scent is in the wind; she is smelling to find the scent and shaking in anticipation, her instinct telling her that she will soon feel the thrill of running to retrieve. Her movements are swift her posture majestic and the red shine of her hair a beautiful sight in the sun.

 Tribute to AyrtonTribute to Ayrton
Ayrton in Hungry. The 1991 season was filled with drama as Ayrton Senna's chief rival and teammate Alain Prost at McLaren/Honda left and joined Ferrari. The championship came down to the last race of the season in Japan.
I wanted to illustrate the light atmosphere and energy that surrounds these cars in a way that holds the viewer that extra few moments.

Stuart Thompson |  Red FlagRed Flag
Belongs to Pavone’ s ongoing study of identity and community through his Flag Series. The foundation of this study, like his other work is linked to his connection with prevalent subject matter from his childhood. Pavone tends to focus on certain images and forms. In the case of flags as subject matter, the association is based on one of his earliest memories - the flying American Flag.

The medium is hand-ground Sumi Ink, brushed on either mixed media paper, or hand-made Japanese Nishinouchi Seiki B Nakaban Kozo Fiber Paper. Each unique piece is the result of an extended contemplation and meditation practice by the artist on the meaning and esoteric teaching of each Kanji character or phrase, and applying swift strokes on the paper, the artist completes both the artwork and the meditation session.

 Red and the Auto-Harp PlaRed and the Auto-Harp Player
I was attracted to the extreme colors
and contrasts; her dark hair, fair skin and white of her shirt. I later added the red wine just to play on the red background and flower in her hair. The colors and dress reflect her heritage which is suggestive of the music she’s playing on the autoharp.

 Ravenna CardinalRavenna Cardinal
Charlene Sloan is a mosaic artist specializing in stone, smalti, and stained-glass mosaics. She was first introduced to the art form during a visit to a Smithsonian exhibition on Byzantine mosaics. The complexity and enduring beauty of ancient mosaics captured her imagination and the tactile feel of creating a mosaic has intrigued her ever since. She seeks to make beautiful mosaics and never stop learning.

Charlene Sloan |  RelationshipsRelationships
Color on color, shape on shape, person on person, thought and counter thought. The color of passion, fire, violence, love, blood, the color that erupts with tension next to green. This painting includes two reds, a mild thing called “Venetian Red” and the bold cadmium red. Venetian red lies quietly next to green; it lets the cad red announce itself and define the shape of things, even in a mess of complications.

 Red Rover Come OverRed Rover Come Over
This was accidental, but happy accident can make abstract painting exciting. You have to keep your eyes open. And the fact that it’s not much of a representation of a road brings me back to the flatness of the canvas, to the colors laid here and there, the colors that themselves advance and recede. The patches of red seem to call to each other across the distance, like the old children’s game.

Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes)
Flathead National Forest, Montana
“Snow Fox” is an image that represents a fleeting moment of time. Nature photography often provides the unexpected. While silently and patiently waiting, at a discovered fox den, the fox appeared out of the forest. The image captures the animal’s quick recognition of an intrusion into its habitat.

During a chilly early winter afternoon walk through Whitney State Forest, my wife came across this partially decomposed oak leaf. One of many millions on the ground that afternoon, there was something so striking about seeing the process of life happening right before my eyes. As I held the leaf up, the sun illuminated the microscopic patterns unique to this leaf’s life journey.

This wooden luggage hand cart has been at the train station in Staunton for as long as I can remember. It reminded me of all the history that this tiny little train station has seen, from Union soldiers being ferried into town to Presidential visits. A true gem of the Shenandoah Valley, Staunton even served as the capital of Virginia for a period in 1781, sheltering legislators during Benedict Arnold’s traitorous destruction of Richmond.

I took inspiration from the Alcazar of Segovia Viewing it at night when lit by colored lights, the walls acquire a tint of coral pink. I fortified the image by painting it in richer and deeper shades thus giving it the illusion of solid strength. The “cut-outs” are arrow slits set inside walls through which an archer can launch arrows. The viewer is at once reminded of a formidable fortress and the richness of the Spanish land.

 Mirage 1Mirage 1
Mirage I and Mirage II are both colorful fantasies a bright and warm day in late summer. The bright red orange represents the ripening of the last peaches of the season and the anticipation of crisp apples to be picked. The bright green suggests the corn harvest, hay to be baled, or the last cutting of grass before the cold sets in. The two paintings can be admired as a diptych.

This particular part of the canyon formed a perfect heart overhead, where the sunlight streamed through and created a glowing, atmospheric effect. The experience of this sacred place is something I want to share with others, and the fluid and translucent qualities unique to watercolor are ideally suited to this kind of flowing, luminous, canyon-scape.

I imagined this fun scenario so I could experiment with the challenge of seeing form through water, differentiating within the water from behind the water. The playful subject encouraged me to be less literal. The subject of water itself as part of the painting allowed me to take full advantage of watercolor's uniquely fluid properties and the whimsical qualities that I find so magical.

A couple of years ago, my sister and I went out to Hollins Orchard in Delaplane, VA to pick peaches. As we gathered the peaches, we suddenly noticed a little lady just slowly walking down the hill from us. She sat down with her bag of peaches. She looked so peaceful just quietly sitting there.

Along the way, I started to notice the beautiful pinks and reds of what I learned were Fireweed. The lovely flowers were in full bloom and along the sides of the road and in different areas of the terrain. The bright red Fireweed against the many greens and brush was so striking. I decided it was a perfect picture to paint for this show.

 First Bouquet of The SeasonFirst Bouquet of The Season
A friend of mine posted her first bouquet of zinnias on Facebook. I was immediately drawn to the complementary colors of the red flowers and the green woven mat they were placed on. The contrast of the dark container and the centers of the flowers also caught my eye. With her permission, I decided to try to bring this lovely bouquet to life with my oils.

As a painter in the American Tonalist tradition, I try in my work to suggest the feeling or mood of a place.

It is my hope that this quiet scene offers you a respite from our fast moving and turbulent world.
