‘Nature of Light’ Exhibit, October 9, 2021
When does light become art?  Light is an essential element that permeates life.  Without light, paintings cannot come to life.

Craig Mann’s latest exhibit ‘Nature of Light’ highlights his use of light as a technique.  Because light is a common theme, there are several different styles to these paintings, including Abstract, Realism, Impressionism. Interestingly, some paintings highlight the ‘dark’ of light and how the lack of light can accentuate beams of light themselves.  The landscapes provided by nature itself have inspired many of the paintings.  Many of the vistas of the desert in the Springtime when nature comes to life.

The exhibit is exclusive to the Mr. Mann’s Design Gallery, but can also be appreciated through the gallery below or the virtual gallery above.

Contrast

‘Contrast’ Exhibit, opens February 26, 2022

More than black and white
As light submits to night
As much to reveal as conceal
To challenge ken of sight

Is it an angel, or is it an omen?
The dawn of a new day?
Or just the eye of a storm?

This but I know…

Contrast exists
It persists 
and twists ways of thinking
Whether we resist 
or assist

Arid Beauty

At first glance, an arid or desert environment brings to mind a barren or desolate landscape.

Incredible natural formations have inspired the artist Craig Mann to create the paintings of his ‘Desert’ series. The paintings in the exhibit showcase the unique techniques and color palette that bring these arid landscapes to life. The images evoke movement, heat, and sensuality.
