The five upcoming exhibits: 

Byron Z. Tripp – Beyond What You See, Gill Gallery Five New Exhibits to Open at the Pacific Grove Art Center “My work fully expresses my poetic feeling at that moment. Expressing my philosophy of understanding universe, nature, humanity. Creating my work always under subconscious. when brush jumping on canvas, mind exploding, blood pumping, feel like fall into unknown dimensions of universe. hand being lead downloading the one which already up there. I never set any boundaries of tools, material, skill or style. As long as it’s can keep my feeling fly!” 

Romanoos – Love of Anything Organic, Dyke Gallery 
“I have but one desire as a representational artist… to utilize my head, heart, and hands in every painting I create. My head, to push all the knowledge I have gained throughout my career; my heart, to keep pushing myself even if depleted; and my hands, to master my craft. With this mindset, the subject matter is irrelevant, (portrait, landscape, or still life), for I love it all.” 

Marybeth Rinehart -Time, Paper, Scissors, Annand Gallery
My collages are mindscapes, reflecting a psycho/spiritual - and sometimes humorous - orientation towards life. Themes of love and time dominate. As Virginia Woolf wrote, “Arrange whatever pieces come your way”. Hopefully we are all fragments of a meaningful whole. Established in 1969, the PGAC hosted my first solo exhibit thirty years ago.
Huge gratitude to the Art Center for being a beacon of creativity and community for 55 years. 

Sherree Anderson, Aimee Darby, Tamara Selyangina, and Dee Steiner - Looking through our Eyes, Boyer Gallery We are four local artists that are passionate about our art. We each have different techniques that we use to apply our own individual interpretation of what we see and paint. Our hope is to preserve these iconic scenes of Monterey County and create paintings that will bring joy to the viewers. We are a group of oil painters, and a watercolorist choosing scenes that are breathtaking, unique, and distinctly of the area we call home. 

Monterey High School - Dreamstate, Small Halls In this show,
Monterey High School digital artists share images created from that "mysterious space of the imagination" which exists inside each of us, and is only reachable when we are very relaxed, or in a mental "dreamstate". One artist states, "I don't know where the images come from, but I feel better once I can create pictures of what I'm feeling inside".
