Starting on Wednesday, March 1, Gallery at Marina Square in Morro Bay will showcase diverse artworks in three new solo exhibitions.
The trio of featured artists for the month of March at the venue will be oil painter Lubov Pavluk, acrylic painter Sandra Sanders, and jeweler Marjorie Zlotowitz. A joint reception will be held on Saturday, March 11, from 3 to 5 p.m. All three showcases are scheduled to remain on display at the gallery through Wednesday, March 29.
Born and raised in Ukraine, Pavluk mostly paints landscapes, seascapes, and other paintings that celebrate "precious moments," in nature, according to press materials from Gallery at Marina Square. Pavluk's oil paintings will be on display in the venue's upper gallery.
Sanders was born and raised on a farm in the San Joaquin Valley and became entranced with coastal locales—which became the subjects of many of her paintings—during vacations and weekend getaways around California's southern coast.
Today, Sanders is a retiree who enjoys painting as a stress reliever. Like Pavluk, Sanders frequently paints scenes from nature.
"I have always been interested in sketching and painting but never got serious until I retired. I can paint for hours and not even know what time it is," Sanders said in press materials. "The stress of life just seems to go away while I'm painting a beautiful seascape or snowy mountain scene. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed painting them."
Zlotowitz is the featured craft artist for the month of March at the gallery and creates jewelry works of various shapes and colors from metals, beads, natural stones, and other resources. Proceeds from purchases of Zlotowitz's pieces in the show will help support Alzheimer's and cancer research organizations, according to the artist.
"Ever since we humans figured out how to string stones and bones, we've adorned ourselves with things we find aesthetically pleasing," Zlotowitz said in press materials. "I view jewelry-making as three-dimensional painting. ... If you share my obsession with shiny, sparkly, and natural things, please have a look."
