Art on the Boulevard is proud to host the premier of Christopher Mathie's new collection "Essential Shapes" which opens on First Friday November 6th (reception is from 5 to 9 pm). To preview all 22 new paintings please visit our website www.artontheboulevard.org and click on "upcoming events" then click on "visit the exhibition". The show runs through Nov. 28th.

Christopher Mathie, now represented by galleries in New York, California, Oregon and Washington State, has developed a signature style with emphasis on deconstructing images to their most important lines and organic forms. He strives to capture energetic movement, emotion and shapes essential to communicate his ideas in paint.
