Silas Thompson
June 1-30
Artists’ Reception: Friday July 3, 5-7:30pm
This month’s featured artist is Idaho native and landscape painter, Silas Thompson, known for his bold use of color, texture, and light. As one of the gallery’s youngest artists, Thompson has quickly become a familiar name amongst collectors. On annual backpacking trips with his father, he began to treasure the distinct birthmarks and icons of beautiful rivers, valleys, and mountains that carve through the high desert and farmlands of the West. His work evokes emotion and pushes Thompson to create with an innovative lens that explores unique subjects and composition. Alongside Thompson’s new body of work, we will display a selection of new paintings from the roster of gallery artists, from bold expressive canvases to intimate realistic compositions.
