Craven Arts Council is proud to present work by private and homeschooled students in Craven County in the Director’s Gallery for the month of April. This exhibition will feature work created by students in art classes from Epiphany Global School, St. Paul’s Catholic School, Annunciation Catholic School, and various homeschooled students across the county. Craven Arts Council will host a reception during the April ArtWalk from 5 – 8 pm on Friday, April 9th.
Art has been shown to have an integral beneficial effect on youth education in subjects from math and science to literary analysis. Bank of the Arts is pleased to reinforce these ideas by offering the students a chance to exhibit their works in a gallery setting.
Chris Lane is a local artist originally from New Bern, but moved to many cities including New York and Baltimore before returning. He was interested in art and loved to draw and paint from an early age. This translated into him becoming interested in graffiti and incorporating that style in his paintings. Lane incorporates many graffiti motifs into his work such as lettering and spray techniques and then uses colorful paint over top to hide certain parts and create the illusion of depth. This exhibition is no different as it utilizes the same technique of layering paint and the subject matter is all wildlife, in particular birds.
