Please visit the gallery or call 804.644.1368 for more information. Michael Gettings - Artist Statement I am striving to create a new method to visually express figurative storytelling. I combine this with a traditional approach to the figure in oils while using a Baroque sensibility. I am looking for the height of the drama, as the story begins to unfold. As part of this new method, my paintings also explore the discrete nature of human vision; how we focus on individual parts of a scene, while the brain filters the gestalt. This is expressed in the composition by using multiple panels and viewpoints. Thematically, my works focus on western myths, legends and biblical stories. Like many artists in the past, I aim to update these stories to conform to contemporary times and culture. “History, myth, vision, and memory” My inspirations are: Caravaggio for his reach into the viewer’s space, mastery of drama and light, and how stories were depicted as contemporary scenes. Frank Stella and Elizabeth Murray’s fracturing of the traditional pictorial space inspire the physical structure of my works. The “New Media” by constantly bombarding us with numerous images and messages through the use of multiple windows, scrolls and changing content. Cathyann L. Burgess - Softly September from the River Watch Series In the midst of turmoil, I am drawn to the river. Acknowledgements of life, constant yet ever-changing abound. The open skies and water invite contemplation of things greater than me. Today the water shimmers, a golden backdrop for the meeting of two indigo cormorants scoping their next dive perched on a giant river stone. Tomorrow, the morning hush will be presented in veils of Prussian blue. There before me is order in the chaos of my days. Timeless in its beauty, the river ordinary becomes a glorious song of joy which beckons me and heals. Wonder widens as the river, crowding out despair. I live near the banks of the James River. I spend each day walking its course, driving over it at the golden hours and wanting to paint the moments in which I am most struck with awe. I have tried to be honest in my translations through oil paint of the world I presently inhabit. I hope it soothes the viewer and satisfies in some small way the craving for beauty and peace that seems to us all too elusive these days. Cathyann L. Burgess - Artist Statement One of art’s functions is to vivify the particular. Primarily, my art is figurative; exploring light and color through people or objects that interest me. It is all about the light. Most often it is the light that attracts me; how it plays on form, enlivening or defining shapes and colors. Most recently, I have come to love painting the natural world as much as portraiture and still life. Painting is delightfully magical. In this riverside series called River Watch, I wanted to depict the river’s significance to me. The titles also reflect either a direct description or the allusion to the feeling that comes over me as observer. If I can succeed in moving but one person through my efforts then my time would have been well spent. ________________________________________ Interviews & more Information available by calling Anne at (804) 644-1368 or visiting www.cathyannstudio113.com GALLERY HOURS: Tuesday - Friday, Noon - 6 P.M.
