This year we lost a dear friend and member of the Quinlan family, local painter, Blue Angel artist Mary Brennan.

Mary Brennan's work appeared in numerous exhibitions, including the annual Members' Exhibition each fall, the Gala art auction each spring, and summer juried exhibitions. She had a passion for learning and discovery, leading her to the creation of her own web page at www.marybrennanpaints.com. She became quite proficient through her classes at Apple at Mall of Georgia where she easily made many friends.

This very special show was Sunday, June 22nd from 12:00 PM until closing 6:00 PM at the Apple Store at the Mall of Georgia.

Judging Results & Artist Statements- Memories, 3rd Annual Summer Juried Exhibiiton

Memories opened on Thursday, May 29th. Out of 143 entries, 61 pieces were carefully selected by our juror for entry Jim Chapman with awards given by artist Frank Norton, Jr. 

Juror Statements

The prime challenge in sorting through the entries for the Memories: A Summer Juried Exhibition was not what to include, but rather, what to leave out. With such high quality work submitted – and so much of it – it was difficult to exclude any. What it came down to, finally, was not skill level, technique, style, subject or medium. Instead, I selected the works that pulled me by some intangible undertow into another place and time, into the murky waters of memory, where light seldom touches bottom.”” -Juror for Entries, Jim Chapman

“Art Selection for purchase or enjoyments is a matter of individual taste, my awards were based on emotion. Paintings, Photography or Sculpture that tugged at my heart, flashed glimpses in the electric currents of my brain and drew me closer to the artist’s message. Bravo to each memory.”-Juror for Awards: Frank Norton, Jr.
