Pat Cross Art Now Showing in The Color Purple Juried Show.
Opening Reception from 3-5 pm on Saturday, February 4th at the David L. Dickirson Fine Art Gallery in Tamarack.
To celebrate a most passionate hue, this exhibit collects an impressive array of artistic uses of the color in a wide variety of mediums. Here, you'll find shades of violet from bold splashes to subtle nuances in paint, glass, enamel, fabric, wood, metal, and ceramic glazes to name a few.
Into this exhibit, jurors selected two oil paintings by Pat Cross, Passion in Purple, a figurative work conveying the radiance shared when a couple connects on a level beyond words. "Sometimes only a visual artwork can tell a love story that reaches the depths of our inner private chambers not accessible to words," says Pat Cross.
To view or purchase this and other artworks by Pat Cross, visit the David L. Dickirson Fine Art Gallery in Tamarack Marketplace, 1 Tamarack Park, Beckley, WV 25801.

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 Appalachain Range.

Paintings of Birds
In this series, I explore the salient personalities and visual qualities of our feathered friends who add so much joy to our lives with their fanciful flitting, social quirks and cheerful music.

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.

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.
