This March, Wells Gallery presents the works of Atlanta-based plein air artists Junko Ono Rothwell and Debra Nadelhoffer in their joint exhibition Colorful Impressions. Through the lens of their signature impressionistic styles, the artists’ exhibition includes a total of 45 oil paintings inspired by the Kiawah Island landscape in South Carolina.

“Both artists use a palette of saturated colors that bring vibrancy and energy to our island vistas,” says Emily Wagner, director at Wells Gallery. “Rothwell and Nadelhoffer enjoy traveling to national and international destinations for their plein air paintings, which serve as references for larger studio pieces or finished works on their own.”
