​
Opening Reception
Date: June 6, 2025 (First Friday)
Time: 5pm - 8 pm
​
Gallery 9 presents “Symphony of Color & Joy”, a patterned approach to painting lively interiors by Jan Meyer. “I imagine most artists want to form a connection with their audience. I truly believe my paintings, with their vivid color and subject matter, form a bond of warmth and playfulness with the observer”, says Jan Meyer.​
​
Jan delights in working with color, shapes and pattern. Geometrics, florals, stripes and polka dots are combined with intense color, creating ROOMS and BLOOMS. Jan’s aim is to convey an atmosphere of fun, playfulness and JOY. The work is done on canvas, in acrylics, that dries quickly and lets the artist move easily from one pattern of color to another. These rooms form impressions of a SYMPHONY OF COLOR AND JOY, and mirror the spirit Jan hopes to convey, especially during these turbulent times.

Over Land & Sea, is inspired by the powerful, ever-moving sky above the land and the sea. From the gentle waves of the ocean to the towering mountains, the clouds drift across the world, linking distant places through shared skies.
