Our public lands and wildlife are facing unprecedented, dangerous rollbacks under the current administration, and we want to do something about it. This August, we’re sharing non-profits that are actively fighting for environmental and animal conservation. To back up their efforts, a portion of proceeds from our wildlife artwork sold throughout August and September will be donated directly to these organizations. Stay tuned, get involved, and help us protect our wild spaces.

Organization to Follow: @CenterForBioDiv

The Mission: Saving life on Earth by securing broad, legally binding protections for critically endangered animals, plants, and their habitats.
The Impact: They hold an unparalleled 83% success rate in court, expanding their reach from protecting local Southwestern forests to defending vulnerable species across all 50 states, the oceans, and the polar regions.
What They Do: They utilize hard scientific data, bold policy advocacy, and aggressive legal intervention to stop habitat destruction, challenge unlawful government rollbacks, and combat global threats like climate change.

Very excited to announce the next Laneway group exhibition, A Bad Bad Thing ❤️‍🔥🖤💃

We’re getting a little dark and dangerous, celebrating the bad, the beautiful, and the strangely dark. I wanna see weird creatures and monsters, dark fantasy, seductive beauty, and some odd and curious surprises!

We’ve got a very special opening night planned, that just so happens to fall on my birthday, so save the date 08/08/2026 and keep an eye out for artwork submissions soon 😻🖤👠

PATRICK OATES
Beyond the Western Horizon

Working primarily in nocturnal or imagined twilight spaces, Oates explores memory, distance, and the emotional charge of place. Drawing on rural landscapes, family folklore, and personal observation, his paintings often depict figures and animals moving through open terrain, suggesting quiet journeys and inherited narratives.

"So We Do The Dance", Oil on canvas, is one of the works by @patrick_oates that will be on view at Madden Gallery.

Beyond the Western Horizon opens 3/19 | 5-8 PM
Complimentary tickets at the link in bio.
