Scott Richards Contemporary Art: Cheryl Kelley - Road Trip

Comment by AB: Photorealism is alive and well, actually extremely well. Cheryl Kelley paints hyperreal reflections on highly polished vintage cars, the totality so complex and flawless, you can hardly believe it's humanly possible.

Dolby Chadwick Gallery: Alluvial Maps - Danae Mattes

Comment by AB: By using clay as a base, Danae Mattes cracks the surfaces of her paintings, imparting aged weathered looks and a viewing experience that's kind of primeval, like traveling back in time.

Caldwell Snyder Gallery: Rural Abstraction - Deladier Almeida

Comment by AB: Serene arcadian scenes in the style of Wayne Thiebaud's Sacramento River Delta landscapes. Perhaps a bit close for comfort at times, but hey-- they get the job done.
