Marcie Rohr at The Portal
Thursday, July 24th, 2008| August 12, 2008 | to | September 12, 2008 |
A new featured artist coming to the Portal Gallery - our good friend Marcie Rohr!
Here is what Marcie has to say about her show …
Marcie is a dreamer. In her dreams she has spanned the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, laughed and cried, lived and died. She dreams the vibrant hues and silky strokes that dance their way across her canvases. Art is the medium of Marcie’s spirit, a bridge between her sleepiness and wakefulness. When not in dreamland she is self taught, God taught, life taught, mentor taught. Marcie has participated in the Art Walk in 2003, 2004, 2006, and 2007. She also shared her art at the former Harvestmoon Festival in 2006. Marcie is a cofounder of Papercastle Art and Photography, an organization which seeks to give underprivileged children a voice in art. In August 2007, Marcie traveled to Pacasmayo Peru to do just that. The art from this experience is currently being displayed at the College Plaza Steeps Teahouse. Marcie is anticipating a solo exhibit in August 2008 entitled “Lost and Found”, a display focused on childhood. The bright pastel hues and dreamy ‘childscapes’ will lead the viewer into a world of their own as they contemplate what is gained and lost through the journey of life.
