The following description comes from the event organizer.
Elizabeth Leach Gallery is pleased to present Waiting for the Sun to Fall, Northwest painter Kavin Buck’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery. A suite of bold new large-scale paintings seize the gallery walls and oscillate between realism and abstraction with a deliberate, hand-hewn energy. They each obliquely reflect their origin of creation, pointing to spaces real and imagined by use of concentrated hues, distinctive brushwork and dramatic mark-making; signature distinctions of Buck’s flourishing oeuvre. Their intricacies reward close study by way of brush striations which describe the gravity that divides land and sky within a vaguely familiar landscape.
