GC Myers- Moonshadows
I am in the midst of preparing a group of work to take with me when I go to Alexandria this coming weekend for my annual Gallery Talk at the Principle Gallery on Saturday. It’s like a mini-show with some new paintings fresh from the studio including the piece shown here, Moonshadows. It’s a smaller painting on paper, a 6″ by 9″ image, that moodily focuses on the moon and the shadows cast from it by the Red Tree and the Traveler on the path. It’s a simple and quiet piece, one that invites thought.
I have also narrowed down the field for the painting that will be given away in a drawing at the Gallery Talk. There are two pieces that I am going back and forth on, both having real meaning for me. As I pointed out before, it’s important to me to give away work that is real and alive at these events and I think either of the two pieces I am considering easily meet that requirement. I will reveal the piece in the next day or two so check back.
Being Sunday it’s time for some music and in keeping with the theme of the painting I chose an older song, Open All Night, from Bruce Springsteen’s great 1982 acoustic album, Nebraska. I find it hard to believe that this album is over thirty years old but when I consider how many times I have ran these lyrics through my head as I’ve been driving somewhere, I am less surprised.
Anyway, enjoy and have a great Sunday…

So sorry I will miss your gallery talk at Principle Gallery on Saturday. No longer living in the DC area and unfortunately I’m flying in for a visit 2 days after your talk. I’ll be sure to stop by the gallery during the week and hopefully see some of your work!
