Charlotte, North Carolina - RedSky Gallery will celebrate the opening of a new exhibition of oil
paintings by
Charlotte artist Tim McMahon. These paintings are the fusion of the gestural brushwork of the
abstract
expressionists and the color and light of Cezanne. The exhibition opens with a reception on Friday,
December 9th from 6-8:30 pm at our 1523 Elizabeth Avenue, Ste 120 location. The show
runs through
January 5th.
Painting for over 35 years, Tim McMahon views Cezanne as a historical mentor and models similar
brushwork. Tim tries to balance the literal, objective aspects of the subject with the expressive
gesture of
the execution. He draws on the pure, broken color of Impressionism as a starting point. However, the
intense elation he feels hiking down a mountain trail or walking barefoot through the surf must be expressed
not merely described. Tim loves the wild places in the mountains and the restless movement of water.
Images of waterfalls allow him to show the jagged planes of the mountains juxtaposed with the ever-
changing light on moving water. The mountains, forests, fields, lakes, rivers and the oceans provide
the
inspiration for his eye and brush. Tim humbly attempts to describe and express the sublime majesty
and
the complexity of the natural environment.
RedSky Gallery features original works on paper and canvas, sculpture, ceramic, glass, studio furniture,
art-
to-wear, jewelry, and more. Over 500 regional and national artists are represented at two gallery locations,
