Whether it is a shaft of sunlight or the sidelong glance of a pet, Chuck Frye strives to capture a moment in time.
During the month of July, visitors to In-Town Gallery can see two themed exhibits of paintings by Mr. Frye.
“Chasing the Light” is a selection of works that illustrate how light can dramatically affect nature and the landscape. “Raining Cats and Dogs” consists of a series of small paintings of animals that show emotion.
A graduate of the University of Georgia where he studied drawing and painting with the late Lamar Dodd, Mr. Frye continues to increase his knowledge of art history and technical art skills. He is inspired by works from the impressionist period to the present.
When asked about this artistic goals, the Ringgold resident said he simply hopes to be satisfied with his work.
