Martha Spak 

Hydrangea in Willow 

30" x 40", oil/canvas 

Surface Appeal, solo exhibition by 

Martha Spak at The Art Gallery 

in Potomac, January 12 – February 26. 

Maryland artist Martha Spak is building a following 

with her oil paintings depicting landscapes and still life. She 

creates an atmosphere through color and light and elegance. 

Her goal is convey a sense of peace and give the viewer a 

chance to pause. 

Spak’s unique paintings evoke subtle emotion and power. 

She creates a translucent effect by using several layers of 

glaze, then adding a surprise element of color to draw the 

eye in. Her work is exhibited nationally and can be found in 

corporate and private collections around the country. 

When Warren Bischoff, manager for the Royal Bank of 

Canada's Washington, DC complex spotted Spak’s work, he 

knew her paintings would be perfect for the walls of their 

office. 

“I fell in love and we bought everything she had — 

around 10 huge pieces, some 5 feet tall,” Bischoff said. “They 

take you away, they are seascapes and beaches, sunshine in 

the woods. You can feel the weather, you can sense the mist. 

They are light and airy, not heavy. They have a calm and 

serene feel to them.” 

These serene works created by Spak were large format 

(48” x 36”) and were inspired by scenic Washington area 

landmarks and the C & O Canal. Titles of Spak’s work included 

Late Day Light, Evening Play and Sparkling Water. 

For more information contact Martha Spak at

A Natural Progression, new oil paintings by 

Edward Bear Miller, January 4-29. Miller 

explores a range of subjects: nudes, portraits, 

cityscapes, the mountainous Adirondacks, and 

the parks and waterways of his native Washington, 

D.C. He has studied and absorbed the 

influences of Gustave Courbet, George Bellows, 

Lucian Freud, and his contemporaries. Miller’s 

work is immediate, vivid, and modern. Each 

piece communicates the artist’s admiration for 

the natural world, where monumental bridges, 

outstretched trees, and wistful human forms 

serve as motifs. 

New Monthly Members’ Shows in Gallery II, 

run concurrently, Jan/Feb. 

The Foundry Feb Four, works by artists who 

joined the gallery in 2011: Linda Button, 

Lesley Clarke, Peter Loge, and Edward Bear 

Miller, February 1 - 26. Paintings by Linda 

Button explore the visual eloquence of “Window 

Dressing” via drawings and oil paintings 

featuring mannequins and the reflections of 

pedestrians, architecture, sky, and bits of flora. 

Painter Lesley Clarke uses acrylics and found 

Art doesn't transform. 

It just plain forms.

objects in complex abstract works focusing on 

emotion and conflict. Peter Loge’s assemblage 

brings together found objects and images 

to represent an idea of an object or emotion, 

rather than the object or emotion itself.

January 6-27: Lucinda Murphy has been fascinated 

by science & the process of Evolution, from the 

Big Bang to Computers. Recently, she has focused 

on exploring Order and Chaos. Monica's paintings 

reflect the fact that each of us makes choices, conscious 

and unconscious, which have consequences. 

Areas that are in more focus versus those that are 

hazy or unclear define this breadth of awareness. 

February 3-24: Elizabeth Holtry: Toile de Jouy. Holtry 

depicts animals that few people appreciate, such as 

hyenas, insects, and rats. Wondering why we freely 

discriminate in our opinions of animals, her work 

addresses prejudicial attitudes. Holtry's inspiration 

also comes from decorative arts and textiles. Toile 

de Jouy mimics the style of historic toile de jouy, 

a fabric originating in France in the late 18th c., 

depicting pastoral scenes: people fishing, sitting by a 

lake, farming, children playing. To subvert the often 

saccharine imagery, Holtry created original, brightlycolored 

toile patterns that depict creatures most 

consider repulsive, frightening, unattractive. 

David Myers: Confined: Visual Synonyms. Photography 

is a tool Myers uses to explore surroundings 

and better understand observations. His work 

documents not yet well-understood preconceptions 

of zoos and aquariums, and our interaction with the 

animals housed within.

January 4 - 28: 

Jenna Crowder and Keith Lane: REVERB + 

ECHO: A HAITIAN LANDSCAPE. Photographs of 

everyday life in post-earthquake Haiti, and 

prints inspired by each of those images. The 

work is a collaboration between Keith Lane 

and Jenna Crowder, weaving a raw story from 

their trips to the country. The photographs 

and prints are made as pairs, providing two 

distinct visions of seeing and responding 

to the same moments. Lane’s photographs 

document the quieter areas of the chaos: a 

foggy mountainside, a rooster hanging out in 

a collapsed church, an afternoon swim near a 

hidden waterfall. Crowder’s prints respond to 

those same frames, offering more saturated 

interpretations and echoes reflecting the colors, 

textures, people, and politics of Haiti with 

typography, graphic design, and drawing.

Lower Level: Jenna Crowder and Keith Lane: a 

pair of scopes. Crowder’s work here is portraiture, 

rendered in graphite. The series began as 

simple pen and ink blind contour drawings as 

a means to keep drawing in her practice. The 

portraits slowly evolved into more complex, 

intimate drawings of friends, strangers, artists, 

photographers, and writers, revealing layers of 

personalities and relationships. Keith is exhibiting 

photographic landscapes taken from his 

time travelling both around the US and abroad. 

These are images shot as a process in concert 

with his documentary work, though a separate

February 1 – 25: Elizabeth Grusin-Howe-LA 

BELLISSIMA. Elizabeth Grusin-Howe's beautiful 

screenprints of Italy. From the quaint 

streets of Florence to the dramatic piazzas 

of Venice, the screenprints are richly colored 

and stunningly alive. Grusin-Howe utilizes a 

mix of traditional screenprinting, metallic ink, 

and wax to create a dreamy landscape. Trish 

Palasik-MOMENTS: TAKING SHAPE. Palasik's 

gorgeous figural sculptures capture fleeting 

moments. The sculptures are small and 

abstracted, graceful like dancers but incredibly 

emotional. The terra cotta sculptures invite you 

to indulge in their curves. Sally Levie-Glimpses 

of Solitude. Paintings by Sally Levie featurer 

winter forests and summers in France. They 

depict abstracted forests in a state of tranquility. 

Levie's beautiful painting technique gives 

the forest a stunning texture and a unique 

purity.

Time of Day, on view from January 20 through 

February 18, features recent artworks by Caroline 

Adams. Although inspired by the Ecuadorian 

skyline and the Greek and mid-Atlantic 

countryside, Adams’ landscapes contain a 

degree of dramatic ambiguity, provoking a 

sense of familiarity and calm. Adams’ goal is 

to simply capture the poetry of lines and tones 

occurring harmoniously in nature.

New Prints by Jake Muirhead, by local contemporary 

printmaker, is on view until January 

23. The show consists of over twenty etchings, 

aquatints, and drypoints, and represents 

Muirhead’s exploration of the human figure 

and invented landscapes. His prints exude 

a rare intensity and liveliness, which can be 

attributed to his working and reworking of his 

intaglio plates. Muirhead earned his MFA in 

Printmaking from GMU, is Associate Printmaker 

at Pyramid Atlantic Art Center in MD, and is a 

founding member of the print group Atelier 

Four. 

Our Winter Contemporary Show will open with 

a nighttime reception on Friday, January 27, 

and run until March 10. Over twenty different 

contemporary artists, who use printmaking as 

their primary medium for artistic expression, 

will be selected for this show. 

The Old Print Gallery specializes in contemporary 

and early 20th century prints, from American 

and local DC artists. Established in historic 

Georgetown in 1971, the gallery has become 

one of the most respected antique print and 

map gallery in the United States, with an 

extensive collection in American historic prints, 

botanicals, Currier & Ives, Audubon’s, American 

town views, and maps of the United States.

Luba Sterlikova - Innergism, thru January 17. 

Russian born, Ms. Sterlikova resides in the 

Washington, DC area. In her works both 

American and Russian influences can be 

detected, as the Eastern vivid colors blend 

symbiotically with more Western shapes 

and structure, yielding a style described as 

“sensual energy paintings” or innergism. Luba 

prefers to call her work romantic, although 

the artwork has often been referred to as 

provocative and sexually charged. From 

nebulas to ancient symbols to exotic images, 

this cross-cultural art takes a viewer to a 

new mental and emotional plane. Detailed 

brush strokes combine with the explosive 

character of the images to create constructs 

of challenging contrast. She uses oil pastel, 

charcoal & oil.

TINAM VALK, thru January. Landscapes and 

architectural details are the preferred subjects 

of Tinam Valk. Her technique of layering with 

modeling paste, underpainting and 

drawing with charcoal, pencil, and pastel as 

she erases and rebuilds surfaces, recapitulates 

the imprint of time. In Rue Babacar III, the 

view recedes through successive arches and 

offset doorways, diminishing in scale until 

there is nothing more to see. Our attention 

is held by the story told by weathered walls, 

rather than by human actors. 


Wisconsin Avenue Studio, continues... 

Valk specializes in surfaces, nubby from scaling 

paint. A brilliant cerulean blue in Taza V protects 

the wood of a Moroccan door repainted many times 

(page 17.) 

Sketching in parks, estate gardens, old cities and 

from memory, Valk chooses images from global 

travels (East Africa, South America, Eastern and 

Western Europe), then constructs the paintings in 

the studio. Born in Berlin, Valk studied and lived in 

the Netherlands before moving to DC. 

"I am not interested in telling the viewer what to 

see. I prefer to leave the paintings open to individual 

emotional responses," she says.

second floor. Eight contemporary American 

artists reflect the influence of Eastern and Western 

ideas and identities. 

Hsin-Hsi Chen: Transition, February 2 – 29. Gibbs 

Street Gallery, first floor. Hsin-Hsi Chen’s extraordinary 

drawings precipitate a journey across 

planes of light and shadow into spaces that teeter 

between illusion and reality. “Transition” marks 

Chen’s experimentation with scale and surface. 

Pushing beyond the intimate scale of her pencil 

drawings, the work engages the space of the gallery 

in ways that more fully immerse the viewer in 

her world.

each First Weekend in January and February 

(see hours above), visitors have an increased 

opportunity for private viewings of the gallery’s 

exhibits. Included in this winter exhibit 

are paintings created during the first-ever 

plein air festival held in Curacao. A group of 

artists who participated in this year’s Plein Air- 

Easton! Festival, as well as some enthusiastic 

art lovers, went to this island nation in the 

Caribbean late last summer. Their mission was 

to assist the island artists in developing their 

version of a plein air festival, and in spite of 

oppressive heat and a near miss by Hurricane 

Irene, the artists still captured the rich colors 

and sights of the Caribbean. A selection of 

their Plein Air-Curacao paintings is on exhibit 

through January.

was given a point and shoot camera and roll 

of black and white film to document people, 

places, and things of importance to them. 

The images were used as a catalyst to write 

stories about their lives. The show provides an 

inside look into the world of these girls, and an 

opportunity of The Art League community to 

interact with its outreach program.
