The Motlow State Community College art department will present an exhibit of new work by Murfreesboro artist Glenn Merchant, now to 24 at the Eoff Hall Gallery on the Moore County campus.
Eoff Hall Gallery hours are 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday.
Merchant is an alumnus of Middle Tennessee State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting and Drawing. His studio is located in downtown Murfreesboro.
“I paint and draw my immediate surroundings; taking note of the commonplace and celebrating it,” said Merchant. “It’s through the painting’s internal light and environment that I hope to find a certain emotional climate. I fix a subject in mind and set the light in the painting first. During the process the work is in constant flux until it finds resolution with surprise.”
