"Fiesta For Four Amigos"

Overland Gallery - Scottsdale, AZ

Martin Grelle "Like Wolves In The Night" oil 24" x 24"

Fresh off the easels of friends Martin Grelle, Ed Mell, Joseph Lorusso and Gary Ernest Smith, this kick-off show will introduce new works by all four artists. This annual ‘Fiesta’ represents the start of the season for each of the artists, and is highly anticipated by collectors. All four artists continually seek new inspiration in their work. Perhaps the words of Gary Ernest Smith say it best: “I like to expand my horizons and push beyond the visual realities. I’m finding new subjects and new approaches. You’ll see more edgy pieces in this show.” On Saturday, October 17th from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., the 'Four Amigos' will be at the gallery to meet collectors, discuss their newest paintings and what inspired them.
