Artist reception:  Friday, Feb 3, 4 – 7 pm

Simple compositions and minimal, yet striking imagery are the main bodies of what my paintings are built on. I strive to make a statement, relying on the least amount of detail to tell the story, stripping down the painting to an almost composite abstraction, and then using light and space, focusing on one particular subject, to capture the viewer’s attention. Whether painting a lone farmhouse or barn, or Palm Springs mid-century modern home, my aim is to celebrate the often forgotten icons of Americana…symbols of American dreams and American lifestyles.  — Jamie Perry
