Underground Gallery
Oji + Leeds
This exhibit features the two artists Patti Oji and Patrcia Leeds.
Patti Oji creates intimate portraits in her Still Lives. A teacup, a bowl of cherries, or a cluster of marbles tells the story of the people outside the frame. She uses darker palates and deep shadows to create a somber or reflective mood, capturing private, personal moments.
Patricia Leeds is an abstract artist who entices the viewer’s senses through her use of imagery, color and texture.
Exhibit Dates: April 12 – May 7, 2013
Reception: April 12, 5 – 8pm
Marin Open Studios: May 4 + 5, 11am – 6pm
