Art gallery features Ted Ramsay paintings 

The works of artist Ted Ramsay are being showcased at the Gardiner Art Gallery at OSU in Stillwater through Feb. 3, in an exhibit titled New Paintings.

Ramsay focuses on the frozen moment in his paintings, creating visually satisfying beauty out of the complexities of daily lives. Using paint to depict the range of light emanating from his figures, Ramsay reassigns the images into a simpler but more powerful painted aesthetic.

Ramsay is a professor emeritus of art at the University of Michigan whose work has been exhibited in invitation exhibitions and one person shows at numerous galleries and museums in the U.S. and abroad as well as corporate and instructional collections.

The Gardiner Art Gallery is open weekdays from 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Admission is free. For more information, go to art.okstate.edu or phone (405) 744-9069.
