Dualities of Northwest Color

 

Current Exhibition:

June: The Dualities of Northwest Color - The Art of Stephen Hayes and Alice Pritchett

The Dualities of Northwest Color is a captivating gallery exhibition that delves into the contrasting yet harmonious approaches of two Pacific Northwest artists, Alice Pritchett and Stephen Hayes.

Alice Pritchett, an illustrator and printmaker from Vancouver, Washington, creates poignant and heartfelt artwork that reflects her spiritual convictions and experiences of parenthood. Her pieces evoke a sense of community and belonging, often depicting beloved local landscapes.

Stephen Hayes, a retired illustrator and art educator from Ridgefield, Washington, explores pure abstraction through color and texture in his current expressionistic works. His paintings delve into the depths of his spiritual and emotional self, inviting viewers to ponder and celebrate human interaction.

Together, their works present a rich tapestry of color and emotion, embodying the unique spirit of the Pacific Northwest.
