Elemental Works by Daniel Wend
Carco Theater Gallery, Renton, WA USA United States of America

The Renton Municipal Arts Commission is hosting a show of mixed media paintings by Des Moines artist, Daniel Wend at the Carco Theater Gallery. Many of his elemental works evolved over a period of years. They evoke the forces of nature and the passage of time, incorporating fossil-like forms, miniature mountainscapes, and unusually juxtaposed natural objects. Wend uses found, recycled or salvaged materials in many of these artworks that reflect his lifelong passion for the environment and the natural sciences. Dan Wend promotes his work with a Portfolio at absolutearts.com. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com

 
 
Pretty Please: Shawn McNulty and Scott Wenner
Rosalux Gallery, Minneapolis, MN USA United States of America

The Rosalux Gallery in Minneapolis exhibits 'Pretty Please: Shawn McNulty and Scott Wenner' until March 29, 2009. Make it pretty, please. It's rule one for painters Shawn McNulty and Scott Wenner. They may maintain disparate styles and approaches but the root philosophy is the same, which is a belief in the power of beauty in art and the necessity of a painting to be first and foremost aesthetically pleasing. Before a work can challenge you, delight you, depress you, or repulse you, it must have your undivided attention. And everyone knows, only the beautiful get attention. As one of earliest members, Shawn McNulty has used a Premiere Portfolio at absolutearts.com to market his art since 2000. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com
