Friday, October 27th, Leopold Gallery + Art Consulting will be hosting an Artist Reception titled, “The City and the Hills.” This reception will feature artists Jane Pronko and Brad Teare. Preparations are underway for the show, with new work by these artists arriving weekly. Both Pronko and Teare will be in attendance along with fine food and drinks. The gallery will also be giving away a bottle of Dom during a live drawing, but you must be present to win.
Jane Pronko is one of the premiere painters of urban landscape in the Midwest. Pronko has been a pioneer for women artists in a male-dominated art world. To Pronko, “[her] art is of a landscape we inhabit but in many ways we never see… Her concern is the urban environment of forgettable…visual cacophony we live with on a daily basis.” Her oils of New York, Kansas City and Chicago are unique, sophisticated and collected nationally. Clients include UMB, Sprint, Overland Park
Convention Center, H&R Block and Hallmark.
Brad Teare built a successful career illustrating for publishers such as The New York Times and Random House where he did book covers for authors. Teare’s pallette-knife oils of the Rockies and High Plains have earned him a following in Park City, Santa Fe, Kansas City and across the country. Critics have compared his work to the great painter Birger Sandzen.
Stop by the gallery for some good drinks, great conversation and exquisite art. Don’t forget to #liveinspired.
