Dock Space Gallery’s March and April show features artwork from Paula Owen. Paula Owen has been a practicing artist most of her adult life with work in museum, corporate, and individual collections. Owen taught professionally in secondary and university levels, in public relations and graphic design, as well as leading arts institutions in Richmond, Virginia and San Antonio, Texas. In her published writing she has focused on leadership, the elements and significance of human creativity, individual artists and their work, and the evolution of concepts in art and craft. Her service to the field also includes serving on national boards and panels, including the Pew Charitable Trust, the Bush Fellowships in the Arts, and numerous state and municipal commissions and panels. 

The "Triple Digit Studies" are gouache on paper paintings completed during the extraordinarily hot 2023 summer months.  This series is labeled studies because I intentionally challenged myself to experiment with a new approach that in some hypothetical ways reflected the severe weather - non-objective, flat, hard-edged, and vivid.

Opening Reception is Saturday, March 9th from 6-9 pm during the Second Saturday Artwalk in the Lone Star Art District. Closing Reception will be Saturday, April 13th. The show will be up through April and the gallery is open by appointment. Call Bill FitzGibbons at 210-723-3048 to view outside of the reception times.
