First Friday Art Walk featuring works by Salvador Dali

Lost Art Gallery is excited to feature a collection of lithographs by Salvador Dali at the December 6th First Friday Art Walk, from 5-9pm. The gallery will be exhibiting Spanish and French lithograph editions, signed by the artist. Join us for refreshments during the event to view a prominent collection of Dali’s surrealist lithographs.

Salvador Dali (1904-1989) was born in Figueras, Spain. As a surrealist painter and printmaker, Dali is best known for his explorations of subconscious imagery. From his melting clock to the burning giraffe, Dali rallied against the tradition of pre-meditated painting, preferring to draw upon his subconscious mind to bring imagery to life. Having left art school before taking his final exam, Dali estranged himself from his father and took up a fishing shack on Port Lligat. This was a location that would figure prominently both in his real life and in his work. He felt that passing an exam was insulting as a means of determining his position as an artist. As a student he developed a vast number of artistic styles and showed great technical skills as a painter.

First Friday Art Walk with live painter Lorraine Millspaugh

We are excited to feature the stunning paintings of Florida wildlife by Lorraine Millspaugh. Her work will be featured for the December 6th First Friday Art Walk here at Sea Spirits Gallery & Gifts, 210 St. George Street, south if the plaza.

Lorraine’s acrylic paintings of elegant Floridian birds are stunning creations painted with sentiment. She uses mostly acrylic with glazes and molding pastes. She specializes in White Herons, Birds and Beaches, and Sea Turtles swaying to the gentle steering currents of the sea. Her use of vibrant contrasts catch the light in her life-like renderings.

We invite you to come meet the artist as she live paints during the event!

Taking a blank canvas and transforming it with oil paint and brush into books that not only tell the story of his life but of our collective popular culture.
