Sabine Street Studios presents "The Loud Quiet" opening reception

eventdetail
Nena Marsh

Sawyer Yards will present "The Loud Quiet," an exhibition of landscape works by three Sawyer Yards artists: Kelly Best Bourgeois, Karen Lindeman, and Nena Marsh.

The three artists approach the subject of landscape differently, but all three create works that are capable of transporting us to another place. While static on the canvas, the scenes chosen for this exhibition resonate and vibrate with the energy and vitality of nature. Through choices in color, application, and composition, the artists hone in on the details of the moment, striking a balance between serenity and the smallness one experiences in the face of epic landscape.

Bourgeois is a retired physician who developed a profound love of nature growing up in Corpus Christi, TX and experiencing the ever changing scenery and wildlife along the Texas Gulf Coast. Bourgeois' subjects are informed by her life experiences, and her love and respect for nature, leading her to often work in plein air method - painting directly in the landscape. Bourgeois works out of Studio #116 at Sabine Street Studios.

Lindeman resides in Houston, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado, and works primarily in watercolor and in oil. Taking liberties with her scenes, she shifts colors and abstracts elements to recreate her reaction to a place, rather than make an "accurate" representation. She works out of Studio #217 at the Silos at Sawyer Yards.

Marsh's career in commercial photography took her to New York City, Los Angeles and finally back to Houston. She works by studying photographs that she takes in places that she loves, most often the Hill Country of Texas. Marsh uses yupo mounted on board, as well as other non-traditional surfaces and mark-making methods to capture the energy of a scene. Her studio is #120 at Spring Street Studios.

The exhibition will be on display through September 9.
