HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. - ncarol.com -- Color Comes Alive, highlighting the work of artists Marcy Lansman, Pat Merriman and Pringle Teetor, will be on display at the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts from September 24 through October 20, with a reception in the gallery on Friday, September 27, from 6-9pm.
Many of Marcy Lansman's paintings have been inspired by what she sees on walks in the woods near her home in Chapel Hill. Lansman puts down an underpainting of bright patches of color. Then, using a palette knife, fills the painting with random strokes that create the illusion of light hitting trees. Speckles of color from the underpainting show through the random shapes created by the palette knife. "The effect," says Lansman, "mimics splashes of light we see in nature. From a distance, the leaves on a tree look like random patches that vary not only in brightness, but in color. I want the paintings to take the viewers out of their busy world into the peace and quiet of the woods."

Pat Merriman's paintings reflect her love of North Carolina, her native state. Constant experimentation keeps her work fresh, innovative, interesting and unique. "I am inspired to try new techniques, paints, and brushes and see what they add to my work. Currently I am exploring the use of different techniques and materials to create snow scenes." Experimentation helps encourage creativity, and broadens an artist's perspective. "I believe it breathes life into artwork," says Merriman, "and hope you will come see what it has brought to my work in this show."
After shoulder surgery this year "I practiced simple forms" said PringleTeetor, "but I made them a little different. I picked random colors for these pieces. Footed bowls are something I love to make but have struggled with in the past because of shoulder problems. With Color Comes Alive as the theme of the show, I put colors together for bright contrast, like purple and orange."

"Years ago, I fell in love with the motion and dance of the heat and fire. It blends physical, technical and artistic skills. It's physically demanding and hard on the body. It's exhausting, but yet, I still love it."
