Kolman & Reeb Gallery is celebrating spring with a group show, Blue Skies Ahead,  featuring our gallery artists, Betsy Ruth Byers, Jil Evans, Abby Mouw, Kelly Jean Ohl, Jodi Reeb, Julie Snidle, and Cameron Zebrun, and guest artists, Carolyn Halliday, Cheryl LeClair-Sommer, and Lynne Sarnoff-Christensen.  We are exhibiting many new artworks inspired by the theme of spring and blue skies. It begins during Art-A-Whirl® weekend and kicks off our spring and summer exhibition schedule.

Blue Skies Ahead, showcases works inspired by the shift in mood we all experience as the seasons change. This show displays visual cues of spring's arrival, with a gentle prompt of optimism and joy.

One of the most significant contributors to this shift in mood is the presence of clear, blue skies. Psychologically, the color blue is associated with tranquility, serenity, and expansiveness. When the sky is a brilliant shade of azure, it creates a backdrop against which our worries and troubles seem to diminish. The vastness of the horizon reminds us of the infinite possibilities that lie ahead, filling us with a sense of eagerness.
