“Out of the Blue” and “Partly Cloudy” by Marion Adams
Marion Adams looks to the sky for inspiration. Working with pastels as her medium, she captures ethereal effects of the ever-changing scene overhead. Adams’ intention is to capture the sky in its various moods, show the turbulence of clouds before a storm, haze drifting overhead on a moonlit night, and small points of starlight gradually appearing after sunset. The single acrylic painting, “Wonder”, stands alone among the pastels as a representation of her own quest seeking answers and, at times,
the right questions.

“Signs of Spring” and “Runnin’ Out of Time” by Seth Moskowitz
When Covid 19 made us prisoners in our own homes, Seth Moskowitz frequently found himself filled with fear and frustration. But despite the dramatic changes in almost every aspect of daily lives, Moskowitz also experienced intense gratitude for a life that remained healthy, happy, hardy and whole.
During “The Covid Years,” Moskowitz produced a constant stream of images that were never quite completed. To celebrate the many splendors of the Spring of 2023, Moskowitz decided to finish and free these images from the messy confines of his head. He hopes the viewer will find connection with some of the places and spaces he passed through during these sometimes seemingly interminable “15 Days to Slow the Spread.”
“What a Tangled Web II” and “Echoes” by Seth Moskowitz
Seth Moskowitz is a Winston-Salem based artist who creates and combines photographic images into artworks that rarely resemble photography or the images that they incorporate. After a challenging career in the corporate world, he began to create visual art in 2004 as an escape from the verbal cacophony of the workaday environment – a way to enter a peaceful, magical place that is literally, beyond words. He has been a member of Artworks Gallery since 2017 and a member of Associated Artists of Winston-Salem since 2005.
This exhibition is free and open to the public.
