Artist Comments
Artist McGarren Flack paints a twix mix cookie on a solid white background. “Who doesn't like sweets?†asks McGarren. In his Sweets series, he draws every piece in a single sitting. Drew puts sole focus on the subject alone. “I painted them after finding out Wayne Thiebaud passed, he was a sweets painter and a really good one at that.â€
About the Artist
Utah-based artist McGarren Flack captures everyday moments of human vulnerability through painterly realism. His career as a paramedic brings him face-to-face with people at their most helpless moments, which inspired him to contemplate the nature of being vulnerable. Whether sitting alone in a cafe or unknowingly dropping a possession on the street, the human condition is always subject to powerlessness. “It is important for me to share these scenes because I believe it will help the viewer connect to humanity,†says McGarren. “There is no escaping the feeling of vulnerability; it is blind to skin color, social status, and age.â€

Artist Jinny Tomozy presents a realistic still life of vibrant and colorful produce - an intimate look at the gardener's prize. "I can not resist the bounty of a fresh harvest," says Jinny. The saturated hues of the fruits that have been nurtured all summer finally come to reveal themselves. The shine of the plump globes displays a dance of highlights among the gathering.
