Posted • Unfortunately, the gallery will be closed today. In the meantime, enjoy this lovely installation pictures of Jenna Ransom’s show, Ever New.

These are “Growing,” “Sweet Thoughts,” and “Wishful Thinking.”

The paintings in Ever New reference new beginnings, transformations, rebirth, and renewed visions.

Ransom was inspired by this song of the same name by Beverly Glenn Copeland, from his 1986 album Keyboard Fantasies.

Ransom lives and works in Brooklyn New York. She received her MFA from Pratt Institute in 2005. She is a NYFA painting fellow and has been awarded residencies at Sharpe-Walentas, the Bronx Museum of Art, the Abrons Art Center, and Vermont Studio Center.

I can’t wait to show you this work. Looking forward to returning next week. 🤞
