Season of Promise
After a summer of virtual art shows and limited socializing, Points of View Artists are looking forward to new beginnings and fresh perspectives in hopes that the pandemic will loosen its grip. Work in this show represents some of the joys of summer, the vibrancy of color, and the inspiration behind the artists’ creativity.

| Untitled No. 2, 2020 |
Alan Mast acrylic on canvas, 16” x 20”, $450 This is one of my “white” paintings, achieved by covering a colorful underpainting with white acrylic, cutting out forms with my brush, then scratching decorative marks and adding some color patches to the final work.

| A Thin Place |
Ed McCartan acrylic, 36" x 36", $800 There is a belief in Celtic lore that some areas of the earth are gateways, or "thin" hiding places for the sacred as well as the earthly.
