Creative Art Show
Michael Gaughan
May 5th-May 28th, 2023


"Creative Art Show" by Michael Gaughan is an exhibition of masterful watercolor paintings. In short, Gaughan's paintings are awesome. Confrontational and bold in some cases yet subtle and enigmatic in others. If you're not immediately struck by the technical skill used to create these clever compositions, then you could be consumed with an intense feeling or emotion gleaned by the work. Much like the punchline of a joke, Gaughan's pieces provoke reactions. "Creative Art Show" offers insight into the mind of an eccentric artist who explores the use of irony, exaggeration, and the absurdity of stating the obvious. This is a creative art show.⁣
