Ringing in the New Year at Eastern Shore Art Center with First Friday Art Walk!
· NEW EXHIBIT: “SOUTHERN SPIRITS: Capturing the Essence of Home”
o Works by Banks Compton. Compton states, “This show is my autobiographical journey of finding home in a series of paintings and drawings, each serving as a visual poem that captures the nuances of my disrupted entry into adulthood, catalyzed by the impact of Covid-19, ultimately culminating in my heartfelt return to my roots in Alabama.” Work will be on display through February 24, 2024.
· NEW EXHIBIT: “Figuring It Out”
o Works by Rosanne McKenney. Representational painter Mckenney’s aim is to capture a simple moment of everyday life. She balances between revealing too much detail, and leaving parts unsaid. Work will be on display through February 24, 2024.
· NEW EXHIBIT: “Art and Addiction”
o Works by Ben Peabody. Through his personal journey of recovery, Louisiana artist Peabody has created a compelling series of work titled “Art and Addiction” depicting the complexities of addiction, treatment, and recovery. Work will be on display through February 24, 2024.
