This triptych by Josie Kirby provides three excellent examples of how one artist constructs layered, fragmented forms from objects in nature.

In anticipation of our next show, "The Language of Color in Art," we're showcasing this thematically appropriate piece by Mark Serrianne. Comprised of an antique Eberhard Faber retail display and an authentic early photograph of John Eberhard Faber himself, this artwork honors the legacy of the New York family who built America's first large-scale pencil factory and helped put color in the hands of artists for generations.
