Rodger Bechtold and Mary Jo O’Gara: Midwest Landscapes

Opening Reception: January 28, 5-7pm

Anne Loucks Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of Midwest Landscapes, an exhibition of 35 recent paintings by artists Rodger Bechtold and Mary Jo O’Gara.

Rodger Bechtold’s paintings capture the Midwestern landscape in a manner that blurs the line between abstraction and representation. Charged with energy, vibrant color and seemingly effortless brushwork, Bechtold’s compositions offer a unique sense of place and spaciousness that extends beyond the canvas.

Mary Jo O’Gara’s paintings represent a study in harmonious layers of color, texture and light. Intentionally uncomplicated and always fresh, her compositions include barns, outbuildings and wide open landscapes inspired by her Midwest surroundings.
