PAINTING ROGERS
Live painting is fun to watch, especially when two of St. Louis’ finest artists collaborate. The afternoon of live painting marked the close of Henryk Ptasiewicz’ exhibition Celebrity at OA Gallery.
Both are seasoned professional representational artists who have earned the respect of the art community. And both of them like color, lots of it!

Lisa Ober‘s style is photo realistic which is very different from Henryk’s Ptasiewicz‘ bold brush strokes and unique colors.
Painting is usually a solitary process where the artist has complete control over the canvas. But collaboration requires an entirely different skill set.
