Join us at Barn Gallery on Thursday, July 14 (at 6 PM) for a Barn Gallery Talk by two of our Opening Exhibition Showcase Artists: Todd Bezold (Painter) and Efram Burk (Graphic Artist).
Meet the artists, see their work, learn about their processes, and ask questions.
These insightful and inspiring Gallery Talks always provide further insight into our exhibitions and give attendees the chance to hear stories + learn tips and tricks from present day juried artist-members of the Ogunquit Art Association, Maine’s Original Artists’ Group (est. 1928).
This is a FREE event and it is open to the public.
About Todd Bezold – Painter

- Todd Bezold
“The coastal environments and deep woodlands of New England are rich with refracted light, with intimate enclosed spaces surrounding pools and streams. I depict these subjects with a simplified application of color forms, adjusting tonality to imply space. My goal is to paint Mount Agamenticus from the peak to views of the mountain itself from distant vantage points.”

About Efram Burk – Photographer/Graphics

“My exercise is purely formal. I select what the viewer will ultimately see, a process involving considerations of: pattern and rhythm, juxtapositions in scale and contrast between foreground/background forms, surface texture, and light. I never want the space to reveal itself too quickly—there seems to be more mystery, surprise and intrigue in asking: how does this scene work? How does everything fit together? When is there too much information in a particular composition? When does it become too obvious? These are questions I constantly ask myself as I try and abstract my source. In large part I’m drawn to abstracting my subject with an eye for aesthetic balance, an overall symmetry, an ensemble, a gestalt. The choppiness and disintegration of Cubism is also of immense influence to me, as I strive to touch upon, what I like to call, the poetry of fragmentation.”
