Samantha Catron – Upcoming September First Friday Artist

Art gallery graphic poster exhibition

We are thrilled to Welcome Samantha Catron as our new Artist of the month at Artemis Gallery!

Her Vivid and Dynamic paintings are to be debuted on the approaching September First Friday, where Samantha will be present to discuss her processes and unique inspiration. Here’s a sneak peak of her work; you’ll obviously have to come on Sept 6th, 5-10pm, 1601 W Main St RVA to experience her art in full force.

Samantha is a self-taught painter who maintains a studio in Richmond, Virginia. Particularly working with acrylic, gouache, and oil paint she thrives on experimentation and exploring the raw process of creating composition. Make sure to mark your calendars and tell your friends. This is an exhibition you won’t want to miss!

Artemis Gallery Presents “Dogs Gone Wild Unleashed” by Artist Rusty Hammer

For our June 2018 First Friday, We hosted Florida folk artist Rusty Hammer who has created  a whole new litter of his wonderfully whimsical, wooden dogs! 

These eccentric dogs are made out of pine and found object wood left over from other projects. Most people consider them to be Outsider Art or Folk Art since rusty doesn’t go by a formal MFA program. All Rusty’s work reflects his hysterical sense of humor, combining dog and human features and characterizations!

Rusty was present at our exhibition and chatted with all the dog/art lovers who visited our enlightened establishment. We were lucky enough to have live music by Norman Norteldor his daughter and his wife. The entire event was an outrageous blast!
