Artist Talk: Saturday, August 18th 5pm - 7pm Originally a participant in the Gallery’s April 2011 exhibition Mama Earth, Russ McIntosh has successfully expanded his portfolio and reach. His work has been featured in local exhibitions such as Artomatic 2012 and Flashpoint’s Adventure Residency Art Show, as well as throughout the United States from The Billboard Art Project in San Bernardino, CA to the 4×6 Exhibit at The Art Gallery in Grand Junction, CO. Russ McIntosh has also received a variety of honors and awards, this year he received a Juror’s Honorable Mention Award for each piece at the following shows: It’s a Wonderful World?, Impressions, and Altered State. Russ also does work by commission, actively blogs, and is always looking to advise emerging artists.
Per the Double Take theme, of his work McIntosh states: “The essence of my art is for the viewer to look deep within my images to find something much more than what they originally saw upon the initial view of the pieces. The images I have created have many layers in them, and though at first glance the main composition does register with them, it is upon further reflection that the viewer can see “hidden images” that were originally unnoticeable.”
