A Natural Dialogue: Waddy Armstrong & Meghan Gerety
Posted by Dominique on 06 Oct 2006 | Tagged as: Art
Check out the latest exhibition at Julie Baker Fine Art, paintings, works on paper and photographic cut out collages by Waddy Armstrong and Meghan Gerety.

Waddy Armstrong paints colorful, delicate, painted silhouettes of trees and shrubs. Says Armstrong, “My work explores the connection between science, modern art and the natural world. Inspired by the strange lines and quirky shapes that occur in nature, I take characteristics of various plants and combine them into hybridized semi-abstract compositions.”
Juxtaposed with Armstrong’s colorful silhouettes are the graphite paintings of New York based artist Meghan Gerety.

The contemplative nature of Meghan Gerety’s work reflects both her practice of Eastern philosophy and her immersion in the history of modern and contemporary painting. The subject of her work is the landscape. Based on photographs, collected from her travels, her landscapes fuse the exploration of inner-self with the gestural energy of action painting. Inspired by vast open spaces and the nature of trees, the work depicts an emotional and spiritual response to the landscape. Enjoy.
