   Jacalyn Beam is a nationally known plein air oil\npainter\, with her wo
 rk being recognized across the country. Her work\nis included in various b
 ooks and publications\, including 100\nMid-Atlantic Plein Air Painters\, A
 rt Collector Magazine\, Brandywine\nValley Reflections\, and more. In thi
 s exhibit\, Jacalyn is paying\nhomage to Edward Redfield\, a Delaware Impr
 essionist and Plein air\npainter. Her images mimic Redfield’s well-known
  scenery\, brushwork\,\nand style\, most notably in the winter landscapes 
 she features. \nSydney McGinley is a designated Master Pastelist with the
  Pastel\nSociety of America. She has won national and international awards
  and\nhas been featured in various established art publications. Her work 
 is\ncollected in the United States and Europe. Sydney uses her pastels to\
 npaint in the manner of American Impressionist\, Mary Cassatt. The\ncorrel
 ation between Sydney’s and Cassatt’s artwork lies in their\nfigurative
  work\, as both women capture the essence of the female form.\nSydney will
  feature six new portraits in this show\, three of which are\nstylized lik
 e Raphaelite sketches\, leaving the original composition\nmarks on the pap
 er.    As a Finland native\, Nina Mickelsen’s\nartistic roots are in N
 ordic design: clean\, bright colors\, bold\nshapes\, crisp\, strong lines 
 — conveying energy\, strength\, and\nmotion. She draws her inspiration f
 rom nature but also contemporary\ndesign. Nina’s chosen medium of silksc
 reening pays tribute to Andy\nWarhol’s revolutionary pop art pieces. Lik
 e how Warhol used brands\nand popular imagery to convey his artistic inten
 tion\, Nina uses bold\nicons like Tabasco hot sauce\, multi-color buoys\, 
 double-flavored\npopsicles\, and more to craft her pop art images. Joe Mil
 ligan’s\nwatercolors evoke a sensitive and emotional feeling of time and
  place\,\nwhich can be attributed his keen observations of the subjects an
 d\ntheir surroundings. He is featured in galleries in PA\, DE\, and NJ\, h
 as\nreceived awards at regional art shows\, and has appeared in books and\
 nmagazines about the New Jersey coast. Andrew Wyeth is Joe’s muse for\nt
 his showcase\, embracing Wyeth’s atmospheric\, moody\, and rustic\nsubje
 cts. Like Wyeth\, Joe’s paintings are void of people but their\npresence
  and spirit are always there\, even if it’s just fleeting.\nNick Serrato
 re works primarily in pastels — a medium he feels can\ncapture the tacti
 le experience and majesty of the grand landscapes he\ndepicts. Nick has fe
 atured in multiple solo exhibitions\, participated\nin various charitable 
 events\, and won numerous awards. Since he was an\nart student\, Nick has 
 been influenced by the work of German-born\nartist Wolf Kahn. Nick’s tec
 hnique harkens back to Kahn’s\nmark-making\, which juxtaposes contrastin
 g colors to blend warm and\ndark hues. While Kahn is known for his bright 
 and colorful images\,\nNick has opted to craft muted and melancholic paint
 ings for this\nexhibit\, highlighting how he can take Kahn’s style and u
 pdate it.\nNancy Richards West has been painting professionally since 1971
 \, with\na focus on depicting the quiet beauty of wildlife and nature. She
 \nworks in an array of styles and mediums but has focused on the ancient\n
 Asian art of Sumi-e painting\, or ink-wash painting\, for this\nexhibition
 . Nancy’s traditional Asian artwork is inspired by Sesshu\nTōyō\, a 16
 th-century Japanese artist known to be the defining master\nof Sumi-e land
 scapes painting. Her work replicates Tōyō’s soft\,\nmisty scenes and f
 irm and energetic strokes\, allowing her contemporary\nimages to evoke a t
 imeworn appearance.      “Homage To…” is\non display from June 1s
 t to the 23rd. Works from the show can be\npreviewed at www.peninsula-gall
 ery.com and are available for\npre-sale.  The gallery is located in the S
 hops at the Beacon\, 520\nEast Savannah Rd. Lewes\, DE\, and is open Tue-
 Sat 10-5\, and Sun 11-3.\nVenue: Peninsula Gallery.
