ART OPENING: Solo Exhibition by ERIC G.
📍 AND Creative | Annapolis
📅 Thursday, July 17
🕔 5–7 PM
🥂 Light refreshments included

Join us for an evening of bold, emotional, large-scale work by neo-expressionist artist Eric G. His process is raw, spontaneous, and deeply personal—translating sound and emotion into color and form through the lens of synesthesia.

“My work is deeply personal, sometimes chaotic, often unplanned. I create instinctively, letting each piece take shape in the moment. My synesthesia blurs the line between what I hear and what I see, so when I paint, I’m translating emotion into form—like jazz, like improvisation, like the feeling of skating through a city at dusk.” — Eric G

Don’t miss this immersive, one-night-only opening at AND Creative. Come vibe with us. 🎶🎨🖤

AND Created Opening Reception – Friday, May 16 🎨 6-8pm {AND Creative: 1851 McGuckian Street - Annapolis}

Alison and Darin have spent years dreaming, planning, and postponing the opportunity to focus on their own artwork. This year, they finally committed—and the result is a show that reflects their personal and creative journeys.

Alison’s work highlights the textures and colors found during her travels to Scotland and Sweden. The textures found in nature and dilapidated buildings and artifacts, explore how time and the environment transform places and materials. Darin’s pieces focus on personal reflection, identity, and an exploration of color, while she focuses on bringing her graphic art and painting together with pieces that emphasize texture and layers. Together, our show offers a visual narrative of where we are creatively and personally.

Join us in celebrating their work—and the milestone of getting it done!

“Flying over Ussy I” and “Flying over Ussy II” are looking for their forever home. Both pieces are impressive in scale (52” x 60”) and are original created by the talented France-based Annapolis artist, Moe Delataire.

“The 2 large figures are from the series: L’art du Nu Français (The art of the French n**e).
It was a series of paintings done of several women who worked & lived at the farm where I lived for many years in rural France.
The principal was to pair the beauty of the women with the beauty of the landscape,” states the artist.

These stunning originals are priced at $2,500 each. Serious inquiries welcome - please contact us on our website for more details: andcreativestudio.com
