You are invited to the opening reception on Friday, March 1 from 6-8 pm for The Soil’s Gaze—a solo exhibition of watercolor paintings by Chris Jehly.
The artist presents plein-air paintings of twisting tree limbs, swirling clouds, and fuzzy pockets of vegetation. Hiking to secluded locations to feel the pulse and the thrum of the natural world, Jehly lets his surroundings guide his process, bringing an element of spontaneity and chance into his landscapes. Jehly invites you into his sacred escapades—often in the Blue Ridge Mountains—with detailed foliage and patterned negative space that form kaleidoscopic worlds. Join us for a reception with the artist on March 1, from 6-8 pm.
