Unique Spin D'Arte Exhibition Debuts at the Downtown New Port Richey Art Gallery

A unique, revolutionary technique in creating art, called
"Spinning" will be the theme of the March, 2014 exhibition making its
debut on March 7 at the Downtown New Port Richey Art Gallery.Β  The artwork
is being presented by the Spin D'Arte Group, founded by Robert Sutherland, who
teaches the medium at the Dunedin Fine Arts Center. An opening wine and cheese
reception will be held from 6 to 9 pm that evening and is open to the public at
no charge.



Sutherland will perform on-site demonstrations of how spinning is performed and
the artwork Β created, usually without a
preconceived idea. The technique involves painting in one area of the canvas at
a time, then turning the canvas multiple times, working in different areas
until one, two, three or up to four different paintings on one canvas can be
discerned.Β  It's the ultimate in expressionism and artistic freedom, and
is an extremely emotional form of painting.Β  The exhibition will continue
through March 29 at the Gallery, which is open Wed - Saturdays, from noon until
6 p.m.



Also on display at the Gallery during March will be an extensive student
photography exhibit from the Pasco eSchool, Pasco County's virtual classroom.
