THE ELLEN KAYROD GALLERY PRESENTS:

Tom Parish

May 3 – June 21, 2013

Opening Reception

Friday, May 10, 2013

5:00-8:00 pm

Born in Hibbing, Minnesota, after a year at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Va., Tom  transferred to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Selected by the faculty for a sojourn in Europe, Parish visited Paris and Florence before returning to pursue a graduate degree at the University of North Dakota.  After receiving his MA, he began his teaching career at the Joliet Township High School and College in Illinois. He then taught in St. Louis for three years before joining the faculty of Wayne State University in Detroit, where he remained for more than 35 years and is now Professor Emeritus.

Talking about his paintings of Venice on exhibit at the Kayrod Gallery, “In 1986,  I visited Berlin and Venice. My work since that trip has centered on Venice.  Shirley and I go to Venice at least once a year for a month or more.  When we are there I carry a small digital camera, my sketch book. Back in my Detroit studio I edit these photos with the help of a magnifying glass. Each painting results from my imagination and these photo groups.  I am painting compositions.”

Reviewing the trajectory of his painting career, Parish recalls the advice of Hobson Pittman, one of his instructors at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. “He said, ‘You must paint the things that you know and love. That is all there is to do.’ . . . . “ you know, he was right.”

 

Gallery  hours are Monday – Thursday by appointment, and Fridays 9 am-7pm. The Gallery is closed weekends.  For more information about the gallery contact Pam Halladay at phalladay@Hannan.org  or visit www.Hannan.org
