In the Main Gallery:  Paintings by Ashley DeVrieze
Ashley is a painter and writer living in Omaha. She is very inspired by a sense of place and how we connect to our surroundings, so her current painting work includes landscapes and wide abstract pieces, as well as things that help ground us indoors, like house plants, flowers, and found objects. Painting allows her a chance to process everyday experiences of home, motherhood, and her personal landscape. While her work is primarily watercolor and acrylic, she often explores mark making and texture through pencil, pastel, and crayon.
