What: Kris Cox "In Significance"
Gail Severn Gallery presents the newest work of Kris Cox whose meticulously layered and finely sculpted surfaces on panel, provide a juxtaposition of calculated references mixed with metaphor and color. These conceptually based sculptural paintings are explorations of the symbolic notion of time. The images are produced with investigations of the potency of materials such as putty and glazes on underlying structures, grids, and wood. The highly worked surfaces are constructed without signs of the artist's immediate bodily gesture. The subtle play between the polished, lush, top layers and the exposure of deep, underlying patterns are made up by traces of the artist's decisions, the process of adding and subtracting, which are recorded in the fields of the finished paintings.

Theodore Waddell "Vision and Geography"
Idaho and Montana Rancher and Artist Theodore Waddell has spent more than 50 years painting and sculpting his beloved landscape with horses, cattle and sheep. His canvases are filled with endless combinations of colors, washes and sometimes wax. His impasto way of painting gives life to his canvases. The horses feel as though they could jump of the surface. Theodore's many techniques create unique paintings that make him proud to be an oil painter! Many Museums across the country have been mounting solo exhibitions honoring Waddell’s illustrious career and he has been include in dozens of group exhibitions that present the western landscape in both traditional and contemporary viewpoints.
