Darlington Arts Center in
Concord Township is pleased to present local artist, Tim Corey, in his first
solo exhibition entitled “Drawing After Dark: Interpretations in Charcoal,
Pencil and Pastel.” Meet the artist to discuss his inspirations and techniques
while enjoying refreshments at the free opening reception at Darlington Arts
Center on Saturday, Feb. 5, 3 to 5 p.m. The show will be free and open to the
public through February 28.
Corey has been studying the
arts since he was a child and became his passion during his teens. His early
artwork was influenced by Surrealism, Salvador Dali and religion, was abstract
and focused on the growing pains experienced during one’s teenage years as well
as the struggle of religion in a secular world.
In an effort to bring art back
into his life, Tim enrolled in a class at Darlington Arts Center with Chadds
Ford artist Karl J. Kuerner. Kuerner helped Tim grow as an artist with a
balance of constructive criticism and praise, challenging him with all of his
pieces. With this support, Tim found a new sense of enthusiasm for his art,
focusing on becoming a more complete artist who can create lifelike images with
a variety of mediums, who can see the shapes within the shapes, and enhance the
lights by using the darks.
This exhibit, “Drawing after
Dark: Interpretations in Charcoal, Pencil and Pastel,” is a collection
showcasing the new direction Tim has taken with his art. These works
demonstrate Tim’s growth as an artist, and his path from the surreal to the
realistic. All of Tim’s work highlights his attention to detail and meticulous
approach to recreating lifelike images.
