BRYONY BENSLY: WONDERLAND
Bryony Bensley is known for her meticulous magical realism and this years solo show explores her modern take on Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass.
Bryony has a longstanding relationship between environmental issues and her strikingly beautiful paintings. She has now melded the childhood innocence and surreal adventures of Alice with the endangered animals and insects in todays rapidly changing world.
Explore the selections included in this exhibition by visiting us in person or the online presentation. Her works are on view at the Gallery today and will be featured June 26 until July 9. Don't miss the artist reception to meet Bryony on Friday June 26, from 4 - 6 pm.
CURRENT CATALOG
Color gets noticed first. Tone works more quietly. It tells the eye where to go
before the mind has sorted out the subject. A strip of light across a floor, a figure
held partly in shadow, a pale sky pressing down over a landscape, these are
tonal decisions. They are not just effects. They are how a painting begins to take
control.
Tone starts with value, the movement from dark to light. In paint, it becomes
more than that. It can live in the weight of a surface, the drag of a brushstroke,
or the way an edge softens into air. Two paintings can use similar colors and feel
entirely different because their tone is different.
