Long known for his depictions of cattle drives and chuck wagons, Pummill has, over the last decade, added to his repertoire by using his enormous talent to capture the land of the Texas Hill Country. Able to render the beauty and diversity of the land, he captures the essence of the area he holds dear. An exhibition this size is a giant undertaking for any artist and we, at InSight Gallery, feel honored to invite you to celebrate this esteemed painter with a show that is a rare treat for collectors.

6 April 2018 Places I Call Home, Calvin Liang, Clive Tyler Reception with Artist: Friday, April 6, 6-8 pm In a show that brings together three vastly different landscape artists working in three vastly different mediums, acrylic artist, oil painter Calvin Liang and pastelist Clive Tyler each paint the landscapes of their home. The organized visual simplicity of Jeremy Browne s work has struck a cord with collectors. With architectural details, clean lines and often stark contrasts between white snow and dark night skies, Browne s work is the perfect tension between a slightly contemporary presentation and a very traditional, representational subject matter. The saturated, vibrant, earthy color pallet found in Calvin Liang s work is instantly familiar as the landscape of the West. Arguably one of the more recognized painters of Monument Valley, Arizona, and the California coastline, his renderings of the towering sandstone buttes, flooded with light, take the viewer on a visual journey to the red-sand desert. Clive Tyler employs masterful usage of color theory and impressionism to create pastels that never fail to delight the eye. From the aspen groves to the foothills of the Colorado mountains, the river streams to the canyons, his rich, crisp strokes convey the experience of a place rather than simply a reproduction. Inspired by nature and the peace within the wilderness, Tyler s work will beckon one to the outdoors, be it literally or figuratively.

Gerhartz Solo Exhibition Small Works Show Recently, I read somewhere, When you buy something from a small or local business, an actual person does a happy dance. This made me laugh because if you follow us on Instagram (@insight_gallery_fredericksburg) then you ve probably seen some videos of us doing those happy dances. But more than just a silly Instagram post, there is something very true about how personal the relationship between vendor, product, retailer and customer can be. We feel fortunate to own a small business and have the opportunity, not just to be personally invested in what we are selling, but to be both personally invested in the people who have created it as well as the people who get to enjoy it. It s a dream to get to live daily with all of the art on the gallery walls but we celebrate each time a piece finds a home. We absolutely love seeing clients connect with the art. When a piece goes to one of your homes or places of business, it s our hope that it will bring you great joy for years to come. Pablo Picasso once said, The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls. Wow. How true is this? No wonder we find ourselves doing happy dances around here. Thank you. Thank you for sharing our love of art. Thank you for your patronage. Thank you for your friendship. Thank you for being part of our lives and allowing InSight Gallery to be part of yours. We look forward to seeing you in On the Cover clockwise from top left:, Mark Haworth, Michael Untiedt, Oreland C. Joe, Sr., Lindsay Scott, Sherrie McGraw, Daniel F.
