SUMMARY:SHELLEY CADE | People Are Strange
DESCRIPTION:The Metropolitan Arts Council is proud to present “People Are Strange”\, a solo exhibition by Greenville artist\, Shelley Cade. Opening Reception September 12th\, 6-8pm. Exhibition runs September 12th – October 17th. \n📍 Metropolitan Arts Council | 16 Augusta Street\, Greenville\, SC\n📅Opening reception: September 12\, 6 – 8 PM\n🆓 Free \nWe invite you to meet Cade’s “strangers”. These distinctive portraits and sculptures all have a story to tell within their expressive lines and atmospheric colors. \nAs Cade shares:\n“My approach to expressing people with a paintbrush often gets weird. But the scratchy layers of paint\, pencil marks\, charcoal smudges and adulterated features — I’ve found — only enhance the story telling. Each of us comes into the world a blank canvas\, and it’s the brush marks of experience which tell our stories and shape who we are.”

SUMMARY:"As I See It" - Lu Wixon
DESCRIPTION:Lu Wixon invites you to the opening reception for her solo show titled “As I see It” at the Metropolitan Arts Council on July 24\, 2025. Come meet the artist\, enjoy light refreshments\, and see her artwork! \nLu grew up in Lafayette\, Louisiana where she earned a BFA from the University of Louisiana.  After graduation\, she spent two years in Trinidad\, West Indies\, quickly earning a reputation as an artist.  She currently lives in Greenville\, South Carolina with her husband where she is involved in the arts community as an artist and former arts educator.  Lu exhibits regularly in the Carolinas and Louisiana and welcomes the community into her studio. \nI paint on wood because I enjoy the organic feel the surface evokes.  Line\, shape\, color\, and negative space\, are the tools I use to portray my feelings of the joy and beauty of the world. The “outlines’ in my work are actually where I don’t paint\, allowing the wood surface to be part of the composition.  My current subjects include figures interacting with the landscape and various aspects of nature.  A partial documentation of my body of work is available at www.LuWixon.com.
