Boat Roundup. Joyce Schlapkohl, artist<\/p><\/div>\n

For the month of July, Asheville Gallery of Art will present a joint exhibition of paintings by Joyce Schlapkohl and Sally Lordeon. From Realism to Abstract<\/em> will open with a reception on Friday, July 1, from 5\u20138 p.m. at the gallery.<\/p>\n

Both artists have painted for many years to establish their distinctive styles, and each appreciates the work of the other. Schlapkohl, who calls her signature style \u201cpainterly realism\u201d and mostly works in oils, says that choosing works for this exhibition was easy. \u201cMy last three paintings showed a variety of what I often paint\u2013mountain scenes, flowers and boats,\u201d she says. \u201cStrong light on most any subject can relate to me and become a painting. I paint the world around me from sketches, color spots and photos.\u201d<\/p>\n

What a Wonderful World. Sally Lordeon, artist<\/p><\/div>\n

Lordeon, who works in acrylics with gold leaf and mixed media, is an abstract artist who used to paint only realism. \u201cI made the artistic move to abstraction when I learned how to free myself from the \u2018copy the photo\u2019 mindset that trapped my creativity,\u201d she says. She selected both representational and non-representational works for this show, and the representational selections \u201csomewhat echo\u201d the subject matter presented in Schlapkohl\u2019s pieces. \u201cThe non-representational artworks I chose show where I have achieved the most artistic freedom, openness and expression in my compositions,\u201d Lordeon says. \u201cOur styles, while both have distinct painterly qualities, are almost at opposite ends of the artistic spectrum and we each use different mediums. We greatly admire each other\u2019s artworks and this show highlights our creative energies.\u201d<\/p>\n
