“Where the Birds Fly” exhibit celebrated at The Gibson Gallery

By Ron Giofu

The latest exhibit at The Gibson Gallery explores what a group of local artists enjoy painting.

“Where the Birds Fly,” works of the Gibson Gallery Artist Station Guild, is the latest exhibit and was the subject of a reception Sunday afternoon at the gallery. It opened April 13 and concludes April 23.

The guild consists of Beverly Hill, Hyuna Lee, Mary Johnston, Vivian Klinck, Brenda Marshall, Trudy Dempsey, Saray Mendez and Hazel McLean. They meet Thursday afternoons.

“This is all of our work,” said McLean. “What we do is get together every Thursday and really enjoy ourselves.”

McLean said “we really have fun” when they gather and the group has grown to bounce ideas off of one another. They paint whatever subject matters they choose in whatever medium they like.

“We just get together and express ourselves,” said McLean. “We support each other and exchange ideas.”

“We work in all mediums,” added Johnston.
