gallery ROW Still Lifes • One of the most exciting aspects about a still life is the process an artist takes to develop the compositions. It can be methodic and meticulous with some creatives beginning with a set up in front of them, while others combine memories and spatial relationships to plan ideas. In this promotional spotlight, we showcase two galleries that represent artists who are drawn to this organized beauty.

Small Works • Tis the season for small works! As the winter months are upon us, galleries nationwide often mount their holiday exhibitions primarily focused on smaller scale paintings and sculptures. In this special advertising section, featured are artists who are consistently creating for these types of shows or continually adding the works to their inventory because of the accessible size and price point. While often less than 20 inches in size, the art holds the same depth, techniques and inspirations as their larger counterparts. During this gift-giving season, these tiny gems have become popular for collectors who want to share the joy of art with friends or are looking to add a new piece to just the right spot in their own homes.
