Artist Reception: 4:00 – 5:00pm
Galen Davison , Victoria, B.C. Canada
Working with plaster, zinc, copper, wood, ceramics and artist grade paint, Davison describes his technique as ‘a loose flow of movement, a visual journey.’ His latest series is called Petal Paintings – and whether he casts his eye to abstract landscapes, seascapes, or still life studies, the results are works of bold beauty that fill their spaces with wonder, peace and delight.
