We are very excited to host a rare local show by Gainesville native and resident Ted Lincoln. As always, our neighbors, Downtown Wine and Cheese will be open with beverages and food for purchase.

Artist's Statement:
It amazes me the preponderance of overt and covert eastern influences that exist in my western world. This fusion can sometimes lead to cultural clashes but it can also give rise to rich source material for a profound global dialogue. This richness, irony and dichotomy can be found in no place more evident than in my life, work, and background. Growing up in Gainesville the son of a Filipina mother and a Yankee father I was aware of all the contradictions and treasures that this contemporary dynamic propagates. My artwork is by no mistake a reflexion of this rich mix. The work that I have chosen to show here are examples of landscape studies and sketches for both my sumi ink paintings and my mother of pearl inlays.
