Square Perspectives, an art show at the Cypress Gallery, is showing until Oct. 26 featuring 12-by-12-inch works created by both professionals and beginners.
“This democratic approach creates a visually striking mosaic of styles and techniques and fosters a supportive environment where established and up-and-coming artists can connect and inspire each other,” according to the gallery.
Showcasing a diverse array of subjects and themes, Square Perspectives features artists from across the county.
The show is a great opportunity to discover hidden local talent, according to Lompoc Valley Art Association President Vicki Andersen.
“The Lompoc Valley Art Association that runs the Cypress Gallery likes to include our local community as much as we can. It is always great to see what the public can create,” Andersen wrote in an email to the Sun.
On Oct. 12, the gallery is hosting an opening reception for Square Perspectives from 1 to 3 p.m. The paintings in the show are for sale, with 70 percent of proceeds going toward the artist and 30 percent to the gallery.
Visit the Cypress Gallery at 119 E. Cypress Ave. in Lompoc Thursdays through Sundays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Call (805) 737-1129 for more information.
