The Gallery at OSA is pleased to present the Spring Water Media Juried Show! This exhibition includes all types of water-soluble media, such as watercolor, gouache, acrylic, chalk pastel, etc. Whether your watercolors drip and flow, or you dry brush acrylic paint, we want to see your work created in water-based media. This exhibition aims to showcase the beauty and diversity of water media in all of its captivating forms.

This show was juried by Yong Hong Zhong, an accomplished artist with a background working for Disney and MTV. His paintings are renowned for their color, expression and atmosphere. He has received multiple awards and has works in the permanent collection of the Maryhill Museum.

Portraits, Figures and Selfies

On display through February 23, 2023
Viewable Online through April 6, 2023

The Gallery at OSA is excited to announce Portraits, Figures, and Selfies, an exhibition featuring the wide range of experimental forms, compositions, and subjects featured in contemporary figure painting. Since ancient times, artists have attempted to capture the aura, personality, humor, and beauty of humanity through representational, abstract, and anatomical art. The figure remains one of the most challenging and rewarding subjects to represent in both form and concept.

In Portraits, Figures, and Selfies we see the artist's interpretation of the figure, human or otherwise! Whether drawn, painted, sculpted, or photographed, works delve into the psyche, reflect the self, or depict the body.
