Excellence in ART since 1963.
As we welcome the spring season, one is reminded that this is a time of renewal, of all things bright and beautiful. Such is the case for the new collection of paintings by several of our gallery artists who we are featuring in our April showcases. Our annual East Meets West show focuses on works by several prominent Chinese artists, all of whom have found great success here in the west. From Huihan Liu’s jewel colored Tibetan scenes and Calvin Liang’s shimmering seascapes to Jie Wei Zhou and James Jiang’s charming scenes of traditional Chinese family life, our show offers a rich and diverse body of work by theses academically trained artists. Albin Veselka and Jesse Powell are recent additions to the Trailside artist roster and each brings a vibrant and fresh look to the gallery. Albin finds much of the inspiration for his paintings in his Northeastern European roots. The paintings have an old world look, but also have modern elements which bridge the gap between the past and current day.
Jie Wei Zhou, Jianzhi-Health And Prosperity, 36 x 30, Oil, $18,000
Jesse Powell is a California based plein air painter, and while he paints all over the country, from Glacier National Park to the East Coast, his native state offers much of the subject matter for his painterly landscape interpretations. As you can see by the logo at the top of this page, the gallery celebrates its 50th anniversary this year! I know that many of our artists and collectors have already made arrangements to attend the event. A reminder that the show will be hosted during the evening of Friday, August 23 in our Jackson, Wyoming location. It promises to be a very special event and I do hope you can join us. The show will feature new works from our roster of gallery artists as well as a handful of guest artists. More information will be available in the coming months. Please note that our newsletter offers only a sampling of the artwork available in our two gallery locations. Please visit our website to view additional works as well as our show schedule.
