SUMMARY:Art: The Intentional Gaze
DESCRIPTION:“The Intentional Gaze” is an ode to the act of seeing. This exhibition invites viewers to explore the world around us through deliberate observation. These artists offer both wide vistas and detailed portraits of the natural world. Through focused attention\, the artists reveal a calming beauty\, asking us to slow down and truly see the exquisite detail that often escapes the hurried eye. The artists’ works\, spanning pencil\, pastel\, acrylics\, and oil\, reveal beauty in color and emotion\, inspiring viewers to appreciate the natural world. When we cease merely looking and begin the deliberate\, focused work of observation\, that’s when the greatest insights are often revealed. \n  \nPlease reserve your gate admission on the website ($20/Non Members in advance\, $0/Members & kids). \nShare this:\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Print (Opens in new window)\n				Print\n			More\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n				Reddit\n			\n				Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n				Tumblr\n			\n				Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n				Threads\n			\n				Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n				WhatsApp\n			\n				Share on Nextdoor (Opens in new window)\n				Nextdoor\n			Like this:Like Loading...
