Pictures for Coming Show - Kent Youngstrom

Just back from the beach, relaxed, ready for a busy week and two great nights at Pantone 278. The third of 6 shows this summer, this one featuring the work of Charlotte artist Kent Youngstrom. On Thursday, July 2, Pantone 278 will present Kent's works at the Charlotte Trolley Powerhouse Museum from 6 to 9. The Gallery will also be open on Friday from 6 to 9 as part of the South End Gallery Crawl. Hope to see you out!

Kent Youngstrom's artistic statement is simple--he creates authentic art that can be appreciated and is accessible to anyone. Each piece is unique and carries a bit of the artist with it. There is movement and emotion in everything he paints. Materials range from acrylic to oil pastels and often incorporate printed photographs or graphic clippings. With a passion for print material Kent leans toward using text or written letters to break up the pattern of swirling layers and arching brush strokes.

We're calling this show "Summer Love". Here are several works that will appear in the show.
