The Sublime and the Mundane

Michael Ferguson, “Fog,” acrylic, 30×32 inches

Through July 1, 2012

Marcia Burtt Studio presents paintings inspired by great vistas, scale and atmosphere, invoking the awe and sense of the sublime that draw us to nature.

Close-up studies of our everyday pleasures present a contrast to the monumental. Inspired by the mundane, the artists discover bright colors and sensitive line in what can no longer be called the ordinary.

Featuring paintings by gallery artists Susan Petty, Marilee Krause, Robert Abbott, Erling Sjovold, Michael Ferguson, Patricia Doyle, Anne Ward, Ian Roberts, Ann Lofquist and Marcia Burtt.
