--- Wilkinson ART Gallery is pleased to host an opening reception for Blue Plate, monotypes by artist Dana Jones, on Saturday, November 21, 2026, from 7 to 9 PM.

Jones wanted to extend a short series of five blue-and-white paintings completed in 2024, titled Ponds & Pools.

The original series of paintings was made from dozens of translucent layers of paint. As he was about to embark on the long, tedious process of painting these, he was introduced to the monotype process with guidance from fellow artist Phil Garrett, in collaboration with @butcher_shop_press.

Jones says:

“Ink, paper and pressure seemed a more engaging, more direct means of building this body of work. Monotype is a simple process (make a painting on a plate, run it through a press, and thereby transfer that painting to paper). It wholeheartedly welcomes accident and chance into the creative process. It is also, for me, an invitation and a challenge to make the most of a very humble skill set.

“I hope that the result, several months and dozens of attempts in the making, will bring you the sense of being at the water, a chance to think and see.”

This will be an essential catch-up and refresher with Dana, and your best chance to see some of his most recent work.

The exhibition runs through December 19, 2026, and is free to the public.

Wilkinson ART Gallery is located at 39 Blair Street, Greenville, SC 29607, in a downtown residential area near Cleveland Park. Convenient curbside parking is available at no charge.

Regular gallery hours: Tuesday–Friday, 1:00–6:00 PM; Saturday, 1:00–4:00 PM. Closed Sundays and Mondays.

Full gallery information is available at http://lineandcolor.net. Call or text Joel Wilkinson at 864-235-4483. a rectangle with bright blue color with the words Blue Plate referring to new monotypes by artist Dana Jones.
