Paintings by Katie Wood McCloy are on display through Oct. 31 at Davidson Town Hall.
The Davidson Town Hall Atrium Gallery this month hosts an exhibit of paintings by Katie Wood McCloy, an artist who lives at The Pines at Davidson. McCloy paints a variety of subjects in watercolors, from landscapes to still lifes.
McCloy’s work has won a variety of awards in recent years, including top prizes at the NC Senior Games, and at the Yorba Linda/Placenita (California) Art Guild. She also has won awards at juried shows in Lincolnton, Hickory, and Yorba Linda.
Katie McCloy
She’s currently member of the Mooresville Artists Guild and has been a member of Brush and Palette in Lenoir, the Hickory Museum of Art, Foothills Painters in Full Circle Arts Gallery, Hickory, and the Catawba and Caldwell County Art Councils. McCloy also teaches private students, including fellow residents at The Pines, and has taught at St. Albans’ Episcopal Church in Hickory and Abingdon Glen
She says of her work:
We cannot improve on God’s creation but we can interpret it. With imagination we can create a scene, a new flower or mix unusual colors to express a mood. It is my dream to give the audience an exciting new way to look at an old subject. Painting in watercolor is a joy filled journey. The joy comes from being in the flow of creativity, helping the colors mix and mingle on the paper to make beautiful surprises. With strong bright colors and dramatic outlining, my work is uncomplicated and happy.
The Davidson Town Hall gallery is open weekdays during business hours, 8am to 5pm, and evenings and weekends during town events. Town Hall is at 216 S. Main St., Davidson. The show will be on display through Oct. 31.
