This group exhibition celebrates the various means by which artists achieve texture and movement within their work. Pegan Brooke’s oil paintings both minimalist and monochromatic, mimic the atmospheric qualities of water through the use of metallic pigments and staccato brushstrokes. Abstract painter, Raphaëlle Goethals is known for her signature layered encaustic and sophisticated minimalism, fusing to create non-representational masterpieces. Her works are void of any sense of gravity, with emphasis on light, texture, and emotive color. Working with the simplest of materials, fiber artist Lisa Kokin explores texture using cord and threads. Embedding found and recycled materials into industrial felt, Kokin playfully arranges seemingly disparate materials. Visit www.gailseverngallery.com or call (208) 726-5079 for hours of operation.
From Van Gogh's vibrant still lifes to the intricate floral patterns in traditional Japanese woodblock prints, flowers have been often depicted in art to convey profound emotions and meditate on our connection to the natural world across time periods. This group exhibition will feature artists that consider art's floral history and play with the flower as subject. Included are the intricate graphite drawings of Maggie Shafran, large scale photography by Laura McPhee, and oil paintings by Kathy Moss and Diane Andrews Hall.

This group exhibition explores the artistic interpretation of our lands by three nationally renowned painters: Theodore Waddell, James Cook and Michael Gregory. For Cook, thickly painted oils work as epic and expressive interpretation of our landscapes, many of which depict The Sawtooths and surrounding mountain ranges. Michael Gregory’s iconic paintings of barns and homesteads reflect the beauty of isolation found in the Western American Landscape. Also included are Laura McPhee’s large-format photographs and Gwynn Murrill's lively bronze-sculpted animals. Visit www.gailseverngallery.com or call (208) 726-5079 for hours of operation.
