For this show, we asked artists to question their own personal “outer limits” as creators in this new world, and regardless of the inspiration, the purpose of this exhibit is to play with the edge, to push the limits, and to test the outer boundaries. So needless to say, this exhibit is out of this world!

Our latest show, Outer Limits Open this week.

RECEPTION: SUNDAY, APRIL 7, 2-4 PM

With a retro nod to the 50s fascination with outer space, we asked artists to tap into their personal “outer limits” for this unusual exhibit. We prompted artists to draw on their childhood memories of such TV shows as “The Outer Limits” and the “Twilight Zone.” Or, a different angle of the same subject could come from more recent obsessions over mysterious white balloons, the colonization of other planets, or the Webb telescope, providing us with mind-boggling celestial glimpses from the beginning of time. Most importantly, we ask artists to question their own personal “outer limits” as creators in this new world where, for example, artificial intelligence is currently challenging our perception of creativity. Regardless of the inspiration, the purpose of this exhibit is to play with the edge and to push the limits and test the outer boundaries.

GICLÉE PHOTOS ON CANVAS WITH CHUCK JENNINGS
Monday, March 11 from 3-5pm

Chuck has a BA in painting and drawing, and MA and MFA degrees in Fine Art and Design. He began teaching design and color theory at Cal Poly in 1968. He was the Chair of the Department of Art and Design for 14 years before he retired in 2008. He has exhibited his work throughout the U. S. with favorite venues in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Sedona, Arizona. His work is included in the collection of the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C.

Although for most of his art career he concentrated on painting, he has had a passion for photography since he bought his first single-lens reflex camera in 1967. Since 2002, he has devoted all his creative energies to digital photography. He now owns Giclée Print and Photo and ReelEyes Photography.

Chuck has a variety of interests, including classic cars and flying, but he is most well known locally for portraits and event photography, which includes his work with Hospice, CASA, and the League of Women Voters, and his technique of putting photos on canvas. He will be showing his wide-ranging photos, explaining his technique, and discussing his journey to professional artist.

EXHIBITION: Your Outer LimitsApr 4, 4:00am835 Main St, Morro Bay, CA, United States, California 93442RECEPTION: Sunday, April 7th from 2-4 pm

With a retro nod to the 50s fascination with outer space, we asked artists to tap into their personal “outer limits” for this unusual exhibit. We prompted artists to draw on their childhood memories of such TV shows as “The Outer Limits” and the “Twilight Zone.” Or, a different angle of the same subject could come from more recent obsessions over mysterious white balloons, the colonization of other planets, or the Webb telescope, providing us with mind-boggling celestial glimpses from the beginning of time. Most importantly, we ask artists to question their own personal “outer limits” as creators in this new world where, for example, artificial intelligence is currently challenging our perception of creativity. Regardless of the inspiration, the purpose of this exhibit is to play with the edge and to push the limits and test the outer boundaries.



WHAT: The Outer Limits

WHEN: April 4 – May 13, 2024

WHERE: Art Center Morro Bay, 835 Main Street, Morro Ba, CA 93442

RECEPTION: Sunday, April 7th from 2-4 pm

COST: FREE

Michael Hannon's Artist Statement:
My interest in sculpture started with an African Secretary bird made out of coat hangers and cut-up aluminum beer cans, held together with plumbers' solder. Years later while attending California State University at Long Beach I majored in jewelry and metal smithing in the Art Department. From there I worked in the LA Shipyards welding on ships. In 1978 I was hired by Toyota to work in their design studios in Newport Beach. I worked with designers building interior and exterior models of future Toyotas. We were encouraged to experiment with different materials and techniques. I retired from Toyota in 2002. Twenty years later, I still work experimentally, only now I am making sculptures using copper, steel, wood, newspaper, and duct tape. At first, my work was of a figurative nature. Lately, my work has become more abstract.

To see more images of Hannon's sculptures, please visit Art Center Morro Bay or go to his website: hannonsculpture.com

"AQUARIUS 2024" Central Coast Watercolor Society's juried exhibit.

Please join our Opening Reception SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 2024, 2-4 pm at Art Center Morro Bay, 835 Main St. Morro Bay CA. 805-772-2504.
.
"Chasing Light": The quality of light in artwork can portray depth, perception, and intensity, as well as more subtle characteristics such as mood and emotion. How light is used – through choice of color, sunlight, and reflection – can bring the champagne softness of an autumnal East Coast landscape or the hardness of a southern California beach day. Or, maybe you “chase” neon light in a modern piece of sculpture or experiment with an LED light box to bring storytelling to your art in an unusual way. How we use light, (and also shadow and the absence of light: darkness) in our work is premeditated and often nuanced. And, it's more difficult to create than it may seem. In this exhibit, we asked artists to submit entries on any platform that reflects their meditation on “chasing” light in their creations.
.
AND
.
"Aquarius 2024": In addition to our Member Exhibit, Central Coast Watercolor Society will host "Aquarius 2024" in our Russell Gallery. This juried showcase presents the best in watermedia painting, representing a wide range of subject, material, and techniques, from traditional to experimental. Juror Joe Cibere will present Awards during our opening reception, Sunday, February 25, 2-4 pm. Please join this special celebration of art!
