Three New Shows at BAYarts

JANUARY 11–31

LUKE J. TORNATZKY

Luke Tornatzky directly expresses his silent stories of love, longing and solitude like this: “There is no end to this exploration of color, light, shape and texture. I create a space, which the viewer may want to enter, and once there, forget the painting and become lost in the feelings which the art has evoked.” Opening reception January 11th 7–9 p.m.

FEBRUARY 8–MARCH 2

COASTAL JOURNEY: EMERGING ARTISTS DORIS MINNICH AND SUE PEPLIN 

A mom, a daughter and their inspirations taken from the sea. Doris through her paintings, Sue through meticulously detailed ceramics. Opening reception February 8th 7–9 p.m.

CATS, MICE AND MOVABLE TYPE: HANDMADE CHILDREN’S BOOKS BY MICHAEL GILL
