“Agape House,” Michael and Catherine Lenz’ home at 801 E. Tyler Street in Athens, announces the opening of “The Color of Ideas Art Show,” Saturday, March 7 at 7 p.m. Featured artist for the event is abstract artist, Carolyn Ellis.
Ellis’ entire approach to making art is to use line, form and color to explore imaginative, interior realities, which, while unattached to the objective world we see around us, are rich and full with meaning for those who are ready for the journey. According to Ellis, “To get anything out of my artwork you have to be willing to create meaning and context for what you are looking at, to find your story, so to speak. For me, every color adds to the story: red for passion, blue for peace, yellow for energy, black for the darkness that shadows us all at some point in our lives.”
The Color of Ideas Art Opening coming to Agape House next Saturday will include live music, a reception, and, most of all, five rooms of Carolyn Ellis’ artwork. If you are interested in reflective abstract art, this is your show!
