“Lowcountry Blooms,” paintings by artist Alexandra Kassing, is the featured May 2015 show at Art Central Gallery in Summerville. “I am inspired each year by the colors of the Spring, as a flurry of new growth and blooms seems to fill almost every part of our lush lowcountry landscape,” said Kassing. “Besides the floral display, there seems to be a myriad of different shades of green.”
The show features familiar local scenes - such as palette knife oil sketches of various scenes around Summerville, majestic oaks, and even Summerville past in “The Pine Forest Inn” - a contemporary acrylic painting of the now disappeared landmark.
Images of azaleas feature prominently in the show, such as in “Azalea on the Ashley” pictured here. “Yes, there are a lot of azalea in this series,” laughs Kassing, “they are our Summerville flower for a reason! They never fail to inspire when they put on their yearly show.”
“Lowcountry Blooms” will be featured May 1-31, 2015 at Art Central. Meet the artist at the Third Thursday reception May 21 5-8 p.m.
