DECATUR â Studying the artworks of Erica Entrop and her exhibit titled âVoyeurâ is a thought-provoking activity.
Beginning April 9, Entropâs exhibit of paintings and textiles featuring people and characters will be on display at the Madden Arts Centerâs Anne Lloyd Gallery throughout April. Depending on the COVID-19 restrictions, a tentative date for the First Friday Gallery Walk is from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Friday, April 9.
According to Anne Lloyd Gallery Coordinator Jami Fawley, one of the featured series will exhibit images of modern people on a modern subway. âSometimes just one person and sometimes a lot of people crowded into that small space,â she said.
DECATUR â Artistic creations are not limited to one medium.
Chicago artist Dan Addingtonâs paintings, using wax and other pigments, will be featured through his exhibit Memory and Meaning in the downtown Anne Lloyd Gallery throughout March.
âThere is a beautiful sense of light,â he said about his creations.
Since wax is translucent, the process allows for various layering techniques. âHow much pigment you add to it is going to determine how opaque the surface is,â Addington said. âIf you just add a little bit of pigment, you can see the layer below and the color it was. The colors are mixing optically.â
