SUMMARY:HERE & THERE: Paintings by Martin Osberg
DESCRIPTION:A collection of Martin Osberg’s painted compositions\, in oil and acrylic\, inspired by the land\, sea and architecture of the Southern Gulf Islands\, Portugal and Spain. \nShow runs February 17 – March 8\nTuesday to Sunday 11 am to 5 pm \nOpening Reception Thursday\, February 19\, 6-8 pm \nMartin Osberg has been painting for over 30 years. The most significant influences on his style have been the land and sea around Vancouver Island and the Southern Gulf Islands\, and the interesting play of light and shadow on buildings in Portugal and Spain. The series “Impressions of Iberia” started during a one month painting retreat in Portugal in 2017 and has continued to develop up to the present. \nThe painted compositions included in HERE and THERE showcase these two distinct influences and include works in oil and acrylic on canvas\, linen\, wood panels and archival oil paper mounted on wood panels. \nMartin Osberg has a studio above the Gage Gallery and will be in his studio painting for the duration of the show. Visitors to the gallery are invited to come up to his studio to meet and discuss his approach to painting.
