Greg Sharp is the Artist of the Month

Greg began his artistic path at the age of seven. His early work revolved around life drawings and the still life, but he has moved over to abstract modern styles. His emphasis on colors and subtle differences in texture has produced multiple series that have led him on an almost obsessive pursuit in color discovery.  His work is spurred on by the challenge to create positive feelings in color and form.  He is inspired by many great modernists and impressionists such as Van Gogh, Pissarro, Sisley and their contemporaries.

“Art can give a much needed escape from a certain reality.  At times it has brought me great comfort.  Art is a reality in itself.”

Greg is a founding member of Studio-In-Sight (celebrating our 5^th anniversary this month!).  Please take a few moments to appreciate a small sample of his array of artistic talents in the St. Luke’s House, Bethesda office.  Once you’re had a chance to check out his work, please take a second to write down a comment for him.  The comment book is at the front office window.

Thank you,

Eric Gordon

OUTER LIMITS 2010

OUTER LIMITS 2010

Studio In-Sight, of Montgomery County, MD is proud to host the second annual Outer Limits group exhibit at St. Luke’s House in Bethesda, MD. Opening reception will be on Sunday, July 11^th from 11am- 2pm. The opening is free to the public, will feature a live musical performance, and light refreshments will be served.

St. Luke's House - 6040 Southport Drive, Bethesda, MD 20814

When operating in unconventional ways, unconventional people can do extraordinary things. Is this “out there”, “strange”, or “bizarre”? This arts exhibit is meant to highlight how some art and artists live, work, and prosper from a unique other state. Participants for this exhibit come from a vast array of backgrounds and are creating from non-traditional settings. By joining together for this group exhibition, our entire community is offered a rare perspective into how the desire to create can effect positive social and individual change.

Guest groups featured in the 2010 Outer Limits show are:

Art Enables

Art for the People

Arundel Lodge

Silver Spring Drop-In Center

Studio Downstairs

UMD-SSW and Studio In-Sight
