Third Law of Emotion
Stephanie Shank
September 4th – September 30th, 2018
Artist Reception: Friday, September 7th, 6-8 PM

Bryant Street Gallery is pleased to present Third Law of Emotion, an exhibition from new gallery artist, Stephanie Shank. Colorful and full of expression, Shank’s paintings are a look into her subconscious – abstract, potent, and cloudy. They contain impressions mostly forgotten and landscapes only seen once recalled now with paint. The exhibition opens September 4^th, with the artist’s reception on September 7^th from 6-8pm.

Growing up in St. Louis, Missouri, Stephanie Shank developed a lifelong love of painting from watching her mother use thick oil paints and bold brushstrokes. Now, her primarily acrylic paintings are non-literal nature scenes with organic, and often bold palettes. Her aim is to release her imagination and share her stories through the balance of light and dark, and chromatic push and pull.

Stephanie Shank has a BFA from the University of Missouri in Kansas City, and has worked in commercially and independently ever since. Third Law of Emotion will be on exhibit from September 4^th – 30^th, 2018 at Bryant Street Gallery, 532 Bryant St, Palo Alto, CA. The opening reception will be held Friday September 7 ^th from 6-8 pm.
