Eleanor Harwood Gallery: Paul Wackers - Slow Wave
Comment by AB: Paul Wackers once told me his paintings are based on real life scenes and locations. Whatever they may be based on, he's got an undeniable talent for beautifying, invigorating and embellishing whatever he either sees or imagines. Anytime you need a breather from the tedium of everyday routine, you can easily lose yourself in these. Good show; go see.

Nancy Toomey Fine Art: Miya Ando - Atmosphere
Comment by AB: No matter what the surface, Miya Ando makes it glisten and shimmer in the light. In a way, her art can be thought of as interpretive mirrors, mysteriously transforming all that it reflects.

Comment by AB: Notable American paintings depicting significant historical events by important American painters are reconfigured for today's discriminating contemporary art audiences. Paintings by Ray Mack complement flags and banners by Bean Gilsdorf.
