This is a good month to venture out to the Francine Seders Gallery. The gallery is presenting an exhibition of paintings and drawings by Ben Frank Moss. The exhibition will continue through March 30th.
As a landscape painter, Moss works to establish a sense of "place" in his work. He is a conscientious observer of light and space as shaped by time and season and brings these observations to his work. In his small oil on paper paintings, he uses color, form, and gesture to evoke memories of "place".
