Exhibition Reception: Winston Wachter Fine Art: West Gallery | Michelle Weddle: Elemental Dynamism

Winston Wächter Fine Art is excited to announce their first solo exhibition with Denver based painter Michelle Weddle. In Elemental Dynamism, Weddle magnifies isolated brushstrokes into animated, expansive forms atop complementary backdrops. Each composition foregrounds a complicated gestural movement situated against soft pastels, like a musical theme catching your ear between bouts of improvisation, or the gentle rush of a stream in a dense forest. Weddle engages with seductive illusion, flattening the central, richly textured forms and suggesting a sculptural depth to the peripheral fields of color. Pairing concision with playfulness, Weddle’s paintings create newfound expressions of motion.

Michelle Weddle received a BFA in Studio Art from the University of Texas, Austin in 2007, with concentrations in Painting, Drawing, Sculpture and Serigraphy. Her work has been exhibited in various solo and group exhibitions in Austin, Dallas, Houston, Denver, and Boulder. She has been featured in publications across Colorado and Texas, as well as international publications including Create Magazine and Art Maze Magazine. Most recently her work was acquired by the Capital One Corporate Collection.
