Featuring Carol Retsch-Bogart, Linda Prager, Brent Arnold , Pearl Arnold and Marilyn Palsha
OPENING RECEPTION FEBRUARY 11TH FROM 5-7PM
We close out winter with this exhibit featuring member artists Carol Retsch-Bogart and Linda Prager, and guest artists Brent Arnold, Pearl Arnold and Marilyn Palsha. Join us at the gallery for the opening reception on February 11.
Carol Retsch-Bogart
Member artist, Carol Retsch-Bogart is a highly skilled mixed media artist, constantly challenging herself and how she approaches her medium. Melding her past experiences as a psychotherapist with being an artist further enhances her work and amplifies her ability to tell a story through textures and layers.
Linda Prager
A multi-talented artist and member of the gallery, Linda Prager will have her newest ceramic pieces featured. These hand-built and textured pieces have a beautiful, graphic quality. Using all sorts of methods and tools in order to create surface texture, Linda creates dynamic functional pieces allowing the viewer “to touch, to look more closely, to explore.”
Marilyn Palsha
After decades of making pots, Marilyn Palsha turned her focus to making figurative sculpture for the last ten years. These female figures express the challenges of aging, illness, facing fear, finding courage and finding peace. It is her hope that viewers will see their own narratives. The work is fired twice and designed to be enjoyed indoors.
Brent Arnold
An encaustic artist with his first featured show at FRANK, we are excited to have his pieces in this show. Brent creates a industrial vibe and rich luscious textures with his medium:
“Encaustic feels like putting on a perfectly worn pair of shoes, everything about it feels right. All of my thoughts and intentions are enhanced by the medium.”
“I realize now all of my work lies in-between two histories. My intent is to freeze a conversation and let the negative space between be the experience.”
Pearl Arnold
Designer and artist, Pearl Arnold is also featured for the first time in the upcoming exhibit. Working with a balance between structure and looseness, in soft muted palettes, Pearl draws her viewer in as they get lost in the wondery of her pieces.
