Join us at Gallery A for: Re-Introducing David Goslin


Significantly influenced by the Washington Color School, Goslin explores the language of the stripe in its simplicity and vitality through his use of acrylics on canvas. With the introduction of gradations of color and light to his later works, Goslin has infused his paintings with luminosity that reflects his deeper exploration of the use of color in pictoral space.


Gallery A is open Tuesday – Saturday, 11am-5pm.

“Re-Introducing David Goslin” will be on view through Saturday January 16th.
