Eleanor Neal will be featured in our exhibition opening Saturday 0ctober 24, Reception 6-9 PM. You are invited! “Drawings and printmaking artworks explore abstraction and its connection to myths and Southern stories, where identity and nature intersect. Inspired by Spanish moss, water, and historical stories.  A sense of belonging that is shaped by history, place, culture, and memory.    I work with paper and non-traditional printmaking processes. I use hand-made papers, plant dyes, and layered surfaces and flowers to create the artworks.  The materials themselves become metaphors for how identity is constructed.  I’m exploring how Southern identity is remembered, carried, transformed, and how it feels. “ Eleanor Neal Drawings and printmaking artworks explore abstraction and its connection to myths and Southern stories, where identity and nature intersect.

Frank Morrison “The Alchemist” Oil on Canvas 36” x 60” DM for Purchase Information Frank Morrison, an Atlanta-based contemporary painter, uses his brush and occasionally, a spray can to amplify Black voices too often overlooked amid the noise of modern life. His dynamic visual language blends the elegance of Neo-Mannerism with the raw edge of street art, pushing the boundaries between figuration and abstraction. Through this fusion he celebrates the rich history, creativity, and resilience of the Black community. Imagination has always been central to Morrison’s identity. Raised on a military base, he learned to invent new worlds and tell stories through drawing. A move to New Jersey later exposed him to the realities of racism, and art became his refuge a way to reshape his world and insert himself into a visual culture that rarely represented Black lives. The 1980s Hip Hop movement profoundly shaped his artistic evolution. Graffiti and breakdancing became early modes of expression, and a tour with music artist Sybil while still in high school offered Morrison his first glimpse into the broader world of art and performance. Encouraged by his high school art teacher, Mrs. Moore, he visited the Louvre during that tour, where he was captivated by the technical mastery and storytelling power of the great European painters.

Sybil Gibson (1908-1995) People are finally starting to realize the depth and incredible talent of this artist. Available early work. Please DM and please Share . Born the daughter of a wealthy businessman, Sybil Gibson spent much of her adult life in poverty. She started out teaching elementary school. She had a daughter during a short and unhappy marriage. Sybil suffered a breakdown after giving birth. She soon disappeared, leaving no trace. The family searched for her, to no avail. Her daughter was raised by Sybil’s parents. Sybil resurfaced in South Florida living in a trailer park and teaching elementary school. In 1963 she decided to create Christmas decorations for her classroom. She brought home grocery bags and the school’s tempera paints. She used a wet sponge to flatten the creases in the grocery bags. She began painting on the wet bags. The wet on wet application made the colors run and wash into one another. This gave the paintings an ethereal quality. She was 55 years old and had never thought about being an artist. She was immediately hooked. By 1971 her work had drawn the attention of the Miami Museum of Modern Art, They gave her a one woman exhibition. She may have feared discovery by her family, or she might have been afraid of the spotlight. She fled, leaving her art strewn about her yard, never to return again. They held the exhibition without her. By the early 1990s Sybil was living in a nursing home in Jasper, Alabama, almost completely blind and with her art tucked under her bed. She was reunited with her adult daughter and moved in with her in Tampa, Florida in 1991. Sybil’s vision was partially restored thanks to surgery arranged by her family. Her restored vision, and the loving care of her family gave Sybil new energy which she poured into painting. Despite failing health, the time from her surgery until her death was a happy and prolific period. And she died leaving more than 200 pieces of primed paper under her bed, ready to go. Sybil Gibson’s work is now in the Permanent Collections of the Brooklyn Museum, The Newark Museum, American Folk Art Museum, The New Orleans Museum and others.

Howard Finster’s “Love and Death Meet Together” 1981 (Number 2,104) is included in an exhibition I am curating for The Atlanta Art Fair @atlartfair “One day I dipped my finger in some white paint and picked it up, and when I picked it up, it formed a face before I ever seen a face, and I turned it around to look and see if I had too much paint and there was two eyes, a mouth, a nose, and everything. A whole face. My finger looked like a face. And there was a feeling just came over me and said, “paint sacred art”. I said “Lord, I can’t paint. I don’t have no education in that”. So I took a dollar bill out of my wallet and started posing on the picture of George Washington. Some kids were around watching me work and that was the first time I felt I was an artist.” On View October 1-4 at The Atlanta Art Fair at Atlanta’s Pullman Yards.
