Student Works Exhibited in Cool Beans Cyber Cafe
SALISBURY, MD---The Cool Beans Cyber Caf茅 in the Guerrieri University Center at Salisbury University features the works of three upper level painting students of Professor Jinchul Kim from December 14-February 8.
The exhibit, “Emerging Awareness,” represents the efforts of Kim’s students, Sasha Blanton, Cheryl Ann Hartnett and Tim Lang, to define individual and truly contemporary painting styles which are honest reflections of the students’ background and their reaction to their environment.
Featuring figurative portraits of family members and close friends, Blanton’s work, based on the traditional application of paint and values called chiaroscuro but imbued with a contemporary sense, treats his subject matter intimately and sympathetically with an understanding of the difficulties of life.
Lang, whose work has been shown in galleries in Hawaii and Berlin, uses an unique compositional perspective which pulls the viewer into the reality of the painting, whether it is a seascape, landscape or still-life.
Using the artistic traditions of both Canada and the United States, Hartnett’s work uses landscape as an arena for contemplation and reflection. She redefines her subject matter in a modern and contemporary way by using technologically advanced colors such as quinacridone violets and cadium reds to represent the inner vitality of her subject matter.
An artist reception is in Cool Beans Caf茅 on Friday, December 14, from 4-6 p.m. For more information contact the 成人抖阴Office of Public Relations at 410-543-6030.
