"Water Water Everywhere" by Laura Cody



Artist Laura Cody will be exhibiting her latest pastel paintings at Art Central Gallery, at 130 (Short) Central Avenue, Summerville, SC during the month of August.  The exhibit, Water Water Everywhere!, includes pastel paintings of waves, beaches and the people who enjoy them.

Laura Cody loves to paint waves!  She says, “There is something so majestic about the ocean and I especially love trying to capture the light as it comes thru the cresting waves.  I find wave paintings to be very calming and peaceful to look at.”  This fascination with the water and the beach are evident in Laura’s newest paintings.  “Surf Side” is 12 inches high and 36 inches wide, a shape that is particularly suited to the wide waves.

“Being at the beach brings up so many wonderful memories of my childhood, my children on our summer vacations and my grandchildren visiting us during the summer.  In “Beach Fun” I was drawn by the sun light on the child and her reflection in the shallow water.”

Laura’s exhibit will be at Art Central through the end of August, with a reception for the artist on Third Thursday, August 16, 2018 5-8 pm.  More info about Laura’s work and the gallery is at www.artcgalleryltc.com.
