SUMMARY:Spotlight Rich Flanegan
DESCRIPTION:Oil painter Rich Flanegan is the Spotlight Artist at the gallery from July 15 – Sept. 15. Best known for his detailed beachscapes and coastal oil paintings\, Rich says\, “I try to capture the mood of the scene and moment in time that made an impression on me. Somethings it’s the force of the surge\, the cloud formation\, the wind\, the light playing on the water or the sand. I focus on the light on and shadow\, the color and values\, and the small details of the scene that impressed me.” Rich has earned many awards including the 2017\, 2019\, and 2023 Lee Barrett People’s Choice and First Place awards (2019 and 2020) at the Arts Council of Moore County Fine Arts Festival. Rich and his wife\, stained glass artist Diane Flanegan\, live in Moore County\, NC. Years ago they lived at the Jersey Shore when they owned an art gallery and provided art services to the Cape May community. \nShown: Detail from The Beach In Winter\, oil by Rich Flanegan

SUMMARY:Southern Comfort: Exhibition of Collages by Eric McRay
DESCRIPTION:Raleigh\, NC-based artist Eric McRay’s much awaited collage show\, which is  titled  Southern Comfort\, opens Friday\, July 26\, 2024 with a public reception from 5 – 7 p.m. The show runs through August 31. Please join us to meet Eric and hear his firsthand inspirations for this insightful exhibition of original collages. According to the artist he uses collage to expose visual storytelling while addressing the human figure as an entity of change in theatrical narratives. These chronicles are inspired by African-American\, Biblical references\, art history\, and pop culture . . . yet\, at the core\, are McRay’s familial relationships. This continuum searches for personal and universal experiences. \nMcRay says\, “Collage\, one of the major innovations of modern art\, is an artist inserting pieces of the real world into a constructed one.” He injects impromptu invention in the constructions of his collages\, which include such materials as reproductions of his previous works\, painted papers\, photographic reproductions\, snippets of photography\, scraps of fabric\, elements from magazines\, and more. The different materials of everyday existence are edited\, sliced\, and reassembled into new images on paper\, board\, or canvas. These constructed worlds pull the viewer into a new reality. Collage empowers McRay to push the boundaries that allow the real world to infiltrate a painting\, dissolve the conventions that separate art and life\, high art and popular culture. \nMcRay’s artistic career has been featured on TV and radio programs\, and in numerous newspapers\, magazines and websites. The Raleigh News & Observer named him one of the “Artists to Watch”. Numerous times he has been listed among the “Best Local Artist” and “Favorite Local Artist”. McRay has received feature articles in Fortune Small Business\, Art Business News\, Our State Magazine and Southern Living Magazine.\n\nRegular gallery hours are 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.  Opening reception on July 26 is from 5 – 7 p.m.
