Our June exhibition features self-taught and long-time gallery artist, Russell Whiting, and celebrating our 20th Anniversary of the Sculpture Garden. Mr. Whiting's sculpture will be on exhibit both inside the gallery and outside in the Sculpture Garden. He uses the acetylene torch in his carving techniques to create his impressive steel sculptures. He is strongly influenced by classical forms executed with contemporary concepts. His imagery stems from sources such as religion, ancient cultures, and cinema which result in fusions of the past and present.
