The F.W. Front Gallery at Woolworth Walk is showcasing the works of local painter Rob O’Sheeran for the month of May. A reception with the artist will held from 5–7 p.m. on Friday, May 6. Rob’s paintings, which embrace vibrant colors and recurring designs, are often created on found objects and architectural salvage. Used as a canvas, vintage glass windows help illuminate the myriad colors and depth of textures.

His paintings range from the abstract and imaginary to landscapes and even the simplicity of everyday objects. “I love and find inspiration from the ocean and a life spent by the water has infused my art with scenes from the sea,” says Rob.
