“Making Waves” — our show of more than 40 paintings by 17 artists — will continue through this coming Sunday, May 7. If you love watching the ocean in all its moods, this is an array of paintings you don’t want to miss. Almost as good as a walk on the beach, without getting sand in your shoes! The works range from Ken Evans’ “A New Season” (at right), a tranquil scene of a Hyannis Port beach, to Jim Freeheart’s “King of Waves,” a painting of a legendary surfing wave off the coast of Maui. Above, gallery visitors Pam Brown and Bob Phear study a pastel painting by Anne Heywood. The Hyannis coupletook in the exhibition at a leisurely pace this afternoon.
Our next special exhibition will shine the spotlight on North Falmouth artist Kevin King. Opening Saturday, May 20, and running through Sunday, June 4, “The Many Sides of Kevin King” will explore the varied creative directions of this eclectic talent. If there’s a commonality to his work, it’s a strong tendency to reference the natural world and a philosophical bent. At right is “Naushon Meadow,” inspired by a visit to one of the Elizabeth Islands. Stay tuned for more info!View more of Kevin King’s work
