Sallie Hackett Brown's sculptures called "Reconstructions" transform found objects into striking visual representations of her challenging observations on familial and societal issues. Terry Brett's large black and white compositions have the immediacy and power of action paintings that express more emotion than pointed narrative.

Join us for the opening reception of BLUNT FORCE in conjunction with St Pete's 2nd Saturday ArtWalk.
