The Color of Water

February 14, 2018 Matthew Bird

This February, Kathryn and I flew to Charleston, SC, to be part of Robert Lange Studio's "The Color of Water" group show opening.  The show celebrates the growing field of contemporary watercolor and features 20 artists from around the globe. I was delighted to learn that NOLA Beetle received the Editor's Pick from Art Mag.

The show is dedicated to the beauty and complexity of the watercolor medium, and Robert's toast opening night summed up the show nicely (below). I first visited Robert and Megan’s gallery in 2017 and you must stop by if you are ever in town; you will leave with a greater love for art. (Plus, not many galleries have an indoor swing or a grand piano that you’re encouraged to play.) I greatly appreciate that they are running a business voted Best Art Gallery in Charleston 2010-2017, while being incredibly talented artists themselves.

All are welcome here, and it’s an honor to have my paintings on the wall along side of Laurin McCracken, Dylan Scott Pierce, Alexandra Becker-Black, Joshua Flint, Kerry Brooks, Mario Robinson, Jason Drake, Nick, Runge, Endre Penovac, Kevin Taylor, Oriol Angrill Jorda, Katie Green, Adam Lister, Ester Sarto, Michiyo Fukushima, Karl Mårtens, Denny Bond, Melanie Norris, Reuben Negron.

The exhibition will hang through the months of January and February.
