Unified by the dynamic resonance of nature in their work, Nancy Treherne Craig and Jennifer Dowdell each bring their unique interpretation to the two-person exhibition at Meibohm Fine Arts. Craig and Dowdell are both illustrious in the mastery of their mediums, in pairing their unique approaches to the natural world, the viewer may hold them in direct opposition, yet threaded together by medium, inspiration, and abstraction.
Nancy Treherne Craig’s acrylic paintings are light, and shadow filled landscapes and waterscapes. Within her work, she places a lens on the ordinary, magnifying the impact of the evening reflections in wooded interiors or the fleeting hues of sunset. Craig describes her work; “When I make art, the starting point is the natural world. In trying to really see my surroundings (mostly in Western New York), I find a richness that is easy to miss in quick glances and casual appearances. We need to see it all; we need to open our eyes.”
Primarily utilizing acrylic paint and vintage ephemera, Jennifer Dowdell explores rich surfaces and mixed media in her collages. Broad, natural themes can be seen from a distance, yet invite the viewer to take a closer look at the small details comprised of bits of paper and handwritten letters, long lost to history. Dowdell states; "I love the softer muted tones I find in vintage materials of the past and try to incorporate that feeling into my artwork. I enjoy contrasting textures and colors. I'm not trying to make statements necessarily in my art, but I hope the viewer resonates with something within it."
