What's the Story?
 |
| Passing Through |
n. lee ball exhibits her work in a solo show entitled What’s the Story? Sometimes the stories are clear and come from images found in old family or personal photos. Other times, the work is inspired by lyric and poem or layered in personal symbols. Lee's intent is not to have a single storyline, but to spark a conversation with the viewer's life experiences, giving them enough infomation to create their own narrative. As a bonus, viewers can become participants by leaving reactions, interpretations, and stories at the scene or in “The Notebook,” giving another dimension to the narrative.

Coming in April - Solo Show of Vibrant Watercolors by Rick Bennett
 |
| A Playground of Illusion | In April TPG will feature vibrant watercolor paintings by Rick Bennett. With playfulness and wit, Rick explores the qualities of watercolor that create entertaining passages, delicate textures, and bold colors. His confident use of light creates atmosphere and defines space. At the North Carolina Artists Exhibition jurors lecture, Larry Wheeler, director of the NC Museum of Art, noted Rick’s successful technical ability with watercolor. “The psychoactive watercolors of Rick Bennett beckon the viewer to reconsider the ordinary,” observes Au Courant Magazine. Rick’s paintings connect art with the lives we lead.
