Bay Gallery’s featured artist for August is Carolyn Griffiths with her exhibition Through the Lens of Colour.
“Colour is one characteristic of my paintings, my work being grounded in transformative blends of shades, tones and primary colours, alongside strong mark-making,” Griffiths said.
“People often see a face or other images in my non-figurative works.
“When viewed, coloured abstracts sometimes define metaphors that come from conscious or subconscious meaning.
“The combination of colour and the abstraction method underpins all of these features in my paintings.
“Whether pure or semi abstract, my creations come from my emotional imagination, often inspired by features or events that capture my attention, whether coloured or not.
“However, most of this exhibition contains bold and muted colour, completed with a combination of brushes, pastels, charcoal and palette knife.”
The exhibition will run Friday to Sunday, until August 31, from 10am to 4pm, and meet the artist will be on August 9 and 31.
Bay Gallery is located at 29 Broken Bay Rd, Ettalong.
