‘Return to Beauty’ showcases new jewelry and paintings

Lunaria Gallery presents a new show, “Return to Beauty, Jewels and Blooms,” by two Lunaria artists, jeweler Chelsea Goin and painter Diane Trevett. 

Goin is showing her jewelry in fun summer colors. Diane Trevett is showing oil paintings of flower portraits. Flowers will be nestled within a color field of expressive brushwork. Her approach to painting reveals an emotional and spiritual response to her subject.

The show opens on First Friday, Aug. 6 from 7 to 9 p.m. at Lunaria at 113 N. Water St., Silverton. The show will continue through Aug. 29. 

Meanwhile, the upstairs Loft space will feature three guest artists. 

Jay Harris is showing his digital paintings.
Pam Serra-Wenz layers colors and then removing certain layered areas to expose underlying colors (sgraffito).

Bill Shumway uses acrylics on sign-board panels because the surface is smooth and resistant to the kinds of pressure he applies with rubber brushes and an assortment of scraping tools.
