Mary Anne Keel Jenkins (1929-2017) is considered to be one of North Carolina’s most significant female painters. In addition to private collections, her work can be found in the permanent collections of many museums. Gallery C in Raleigh represents her estate.

So I had the pleasure of meeting Sydney at the opening of Taking Shape. She also recently told more about her story on HOKA’s blog. She’s truly an inspiration!

Ann is the 2022 Artspace Universal Access Resident at Artspace. This program provides funding, studio space and support for an artist who identifies as having a disability to produce a solo exhibition (which is up now).
#annroth
has work up in In Conversation at Hodges Taylor along with Ashlynn.
More (definitely encourage readers to try to see this work irl, as with all Art, but these in particular- the details just do not translate in the tiny image below).

I don’t know most or even many of the artists I post about personally. I’m fortunate Cindy is an exception. Many of you who are #ncartists probably saw some of her rubbings at Greenhill recently- it’s the body of work she’s focused on since I’ve known her and they are subtle, intentional Modernism at it’s best. We’ve also done an IG live artist chat if any of you think you can listen to me talk for an hour…

First saw Georges’ work in Front Burner with Ashlynn and Brett and Lien. He recently also curated Abstracto/Latino: Latin American with an Abstract Fusion.
Also- the way he often lets his stretcher bars show or uses them as compositional elements reminds me of Dona.
#georgeslechevallier
is in Color Focus with Katie and Abie (alliteration unintended I assume).
He is a self-taught artist who is on the spectrum.
#wileyjohnson
is in Color Focus with Katie (the work in this show is distinct body of work from this sometimes figurative painter).
#abieharris
is Durham-based (#ncartists) and she is in Color Focus at Sertoma (via Charlotte Russell).

Freddie is headed into the Regional Emerging Artist Residency for Artspace for 2022. They feel (as a queer/trans person) that “language is important for expressing our experiences, but labels become limiting when we become too attached to them” and they explore this through loose shape and varied repetition.
