Sculpture by James Palmer also will be featured. The Gallery is located at the corner of Gold and Pine. Call 575-546-3663 for information.
Dougherty’s works range from oil, acrylic, watercolor to mixed media. Being a plein air painter, she works from life whether portraying a place, person, or object. This representational aspect can also be the beginning of the process to exploit basic shapes and forms. When modified, they sometimes lead to abstractions.
Other exhibited pieces are encounters with no subject at all. Their destination is an arrangement of spaces and forms contrasted by values and complementary hues allowing an introspection by the viewer to personally reach an impact of volume, depth, force, energy or imagined connections. Between viewing and reading the title often the visitor reflects the same conclusion that was intended. Another section of the exhibit will contain some fun art with foods in transition.
Dougherty operates the Blue Gate Gallery in the Farmer’s Market area of the Las Cruces Downtown Mall, 311 N. Downtown, hours Tuesday - Friday 10 - 5:00 p.m. , Saturdays until noon where she usually has a work in progress.
