Twenty-five years after his first major exhibition at Gadsden Arts, Eluster returns with paintings and sculptures that represent four important series of his work over three decades. A native of Tallahassee, Richardson began painting in the 3rd grade. Upon retiring from an engineering career, he pursued his passion, painting family traditions and the history, people and places of North Florida. Richardson’s award-winning works have been exhibited across the South and at the Smithsonian.

Reception has been postponed to Friday March 11, 2022

Jessica Burke is a North Carolina based artist and educator who creates her intricately rendered compositions using a variety of mixed media, from graphite and colored pencil, to watercolor and digital media. Most of the artwork in this collection begins as a watercolor, is scanned into a computer, and manipulated by Burke in a digital program. 

Burke investigates the concept of identity through a person’s thoughts. The underlying theme asserts death as our silent companion to life, and these images are our shadows.

The work in this exhibition was supported by grants to the artist by by the North Carolina Arts Council, a division of the Department of Natural and Cultural Resources; the Arts & Science Council with funding from Mecklenburg County and the City of Charlotte; and the arts councils in Cabarrus, Cleveland, Gaston, Lincoln, and Rowan counties.
