The exhibition promises to be a rich and engaging experience, offering both seasoned art historians and newcomers a chance to explore the depth of Feehan’s artistic vision. His paintings speak to a wide range of emotions, from delight to introspection, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that encourages viewers to immerse themselves in the narrative woven through each piece.

“I am often asked concerning my paintings of the source of my subjects. In reply, I should say they are portraits of us. We as travelers on new journeys and seen with a more than a touch of whimsy. We as saints and sinners, as fools, in love and out. The subjects are familiar and the journey is discovery,” remarks James Feehan

The exhibition will remain on view until November 19th, providing ample time for art enthusiasts to explore the enigmatic worlds created by this remarkable artist.
