Jurors Select Pat Cross Art into West Virginia Inspired Exhibit.
The show opens with a Reception and Awards Ceremony at 2 pm on Sunday, July 28, 2024 and an exhibit that continues through Fall.
This exhibit showcases the artworks by West Virginia artists inspired by our historic landmarks and architecture. Jurors selected original artworks based on merit of relevancy, creativity and craftsmanship.
The artworks by Pat Cross juried into the show are original oil paintings that feature the grand Greenbrier Hotel. For example, one titled Greenbrier Hotel Then and Now shows the ties of past, present and future of this historic landmark that continues to bring value well into the future with its world class accommodations and conferences for science, industry and technology.
To view this and other oil paintings by Pat Cross in the exhibit, visit the West Virginia State Museum, The Culture Center, 1900 Kanawha Boulevard East, Charleston, WV 25305. Read on ...

Figurative Paintings
In this series of oil paintings, I explore the artistry and visual language spoken by the human form. "People often talk about body language," says Pat Cross, "but I prefer to listen with a pencil or brush in hand. Then, I tend to listen more closely and pick up on cues I'd miss otherwise."

Landscape Paintings
Here, Pat Cross brings the viewer along on an outdoor adventure. "When I hike a trail or paddle a lake, I scout for striking scenery to paint," says the artist, adding, "And I bite at the bit to share that experience with others." Pat Cross has explored some of our nation's most awe-inspiring geographies such as the Colorado Rockies, Oregon Cascades, and Appalachian Range.

Floral Paintings
In this series of oil paintings, Pat Cross explores, up close and personal, both garden and wild blooms. "I paint each bloom as I would a portrait, up close and personal. Collecting a series of floral paintings brings the refreshment of a garden indoors to enjoy every season of the year.

Waterways Paintings
This series of oil paintings on natural waterways reveal the powerfully soothing and reflective nature brooks, rivers and tides. "I find the musical sounds of moving water as refreshing as I do the mercurial beauty of it," says Pat Cross. The view is forever changing as the water travels, leaving ripples, waves, foam or splashes in its wake.
