Glencoe Mansion, Museum & Gallery announces the opening today, Nov. 27, of its new gallery exhibit featuring the works of six talented local artists: Langley Anderson, Jane Blevins, Jennifer Huffman, Ken Pease, Kaila Hendricks, and Hope Creasy. 

Langley Anderson’s photography brings together an eclectic set of images that speak to the essence of her style. Her pieces range from photographic explorations of classic cars to fantastic scientific images capturing what the naked eye can’t see. Using scanning electron and stereo microscopes, she brings to the gallery the minute details of nature showing their inherent beauty.

Jane Blevins is an art teacher who uses her artistic skills to help others celebrate their future college experiences or beloved memories from an alma mater. She uses watercolor and colored pencils to create images that evoke the special traditions, memories, and experience that make each college unique.

Jennifer Huffman strives to create visual representations of the small images and details that stick out in her mind’s eye as interesting, beautiful, or as symbols of experiences both shared and private. Through the use of soft, retreating colors and dramatic detailed linework she attempts to convey the selective nature of personal memory by playing with focus and depth of field.

Ken Pease is an artist and elementary art teacher who has worked as a graphic designer for over 30 years. His works have a folk-art style developed from his love of Warner Brothers cartoons, Picasso, and music and humor. His paintings are colorful and fun and seek to spread peace, love and music.

Kaila Hendricks and Hope Creasy of HanK’s Hideaway Shop create wood wall art assembled from multiple objects with different stories, adhering very much to the wedding tradition of “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.” Each piece is handmade and makes a memory come to life as it tells its own story.

The gallery’s display, “Christmas in Virginia,” debuts Dec. 11. The gift shop offers a wide variety of one-of-a-kind and specialty handcrafted, local, and antique goods just in time for Christmas shopping. The gallery and the gift shop at Glencoe Mansion are open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free and everyone is welcome.
