This month in The Gallery: wood meets water

Two traditional art forms collide in The Gallery in February as two Windsor artist showcase their unique talents side by side.

Ian Coffin (top)  is a Windsor artist who works in wood and soapstone. He creates both realistic and abstract works. Ian enjoys the craft of producing wooden art objects out of reclaimed materials. He has completed many pieces in using wood from telephone poles. Ian has been working in soapstone for less than two years. Sculpting in soapstone uses the same artistic muscles as wood work but has a much more sensual look and feel. Ian enjoys working in both soapstone and wood  both satisfy his need to create using his hands.

Artwork is a “serious hobby” for watercolourist Robert Voyvodic (bottom). He is currently working in Windsor and spends his spare time at his studio in Walkerville. Florals, figurative and portraits are his main subject matter.

This creative pairing will be on display until February 29.

This month in The Gallery: Jon Pickell

The Gallery is hosting a selection of hand coloured photographs this month by Detroit artist Jon Pickell.

Here is a small blurb about the work on display from Jon himself:

“I had originally began hand colouring photographs as a way to more completely control the environments I placed my subjects in — a means of emphasizing or deemphasizing certain elements of the composition,and drawing attention to the figures of activities. This evolved into actually constructing environments to place my subjects in, including creating ambiguous spaces for them to occupy. Photographs are, by nature, documentary, and have implied narrative, even if it is completely constructed, not found. The medium lends the image a sense of verisimilitude.”

The exhibition runs until January 31st.
