Plein Air Pointillism and Patterns
A Group Exhibition Featuring Elena Bria, Susan Giblin, and Ben Turley

William Ris Gallery
1291 Main Road
Jamesport, NY 11947

Reception, Saturday, May 23rd, 3pm

Plein Air, Pointillism & Patterns brings a unique visual language and perspective, reflecting their individual interests and mastery within their respective styles.

Elena Bria’s work captures the immediacy and beauty of nature through her dedication to plein air painting. Her practice of working onsite in regional and natural environments has earned her international recognition and numerous awards, positioning her as a respected voice in contemporary plein air painting.

Susan Giblin, based in Atlanta, returns to William Ris Gallery for her second exhibition following last year’s highly praised and successful debut. Known for her nuanced approach to pointillism, Susan’s mixed media work has resonated strongly with Northeast collectors, further establishing her growing reputation.

Ben Turley offers a compelling, linear interpretation of the landscape. His compositions—rendered in a variety of shapes and sizes—explore pattern, structure, and spatial rhythm, creating a distinctive visual experience that bridges abstraction and representation.
