Student art at the Blue Pepper

img_0935

Great to see fresh talent on the visual art front. The missus and I went to The Nineties artist reception at the Blue Pepper the other night. It'll hang all month. A collaboration between Salem Art Association and local students, the exhibit paired the younguns up with some of Salem's most accomplished artists to create some inspiring art. Acrylic, mixed-media, oil, pencil, a wide array of talent was on display.

While the mentors obviously influenced the work, the students managed to break away enough to call it their own. My favorite was the piece with the blue faces.
