In her upcoming exhibition, artist Gina Dunn combines paintings with subject matter varying from cellular abstractions, modern landscapes and abstract florals in a show that "comprises and defines my third pregnancy, a time of drastic change and life-altering decisions, both personal and professional.”
"My paintings explore the ideas of natural beauty, femininity, motherhood, love, lost love, and the elusive nature of dreams, to name a few. I am continually amazed by the subconscious that is often suppressed but somehow demands to be listened to and try to capture that essence in each work of art. My paintings put my own feelings under the microscope, examine them, and draw inspiration from the magnitude of emotions on display. Each work in its own way addresses the vulnerability that stems from being at the mercy of powers greater than us but also from the knowledge that life is precious and beautiful."
With past art exhibitions throughout Dallas as well as being an art teacher for several years at both Art Stop and The Dallas Museum of Art, Gina Marie Dunn’s creative background runs the gamut. Her work has an organic, earthy feel that is truly captivating.
Allwork is available for pre-sale. Ten percent of sales will be donated to help the victims in Haiti.

Best of luck with your exhibition! Wish I was closer, I'd certainly come see this bright, colorful, uplifting body of work.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your encouragement. This is the creative culmination of the body of work created during my pregnancy. By the time of the opening, my son will be able to see for himself what he inspired. :)
ReplyDeleteGina, I second everything Susan said. What a beautiful collection! I plan on keeping a wall open in our NOLA condo for one of your pieces!!!
