- **Event Name**: "The Abstractionists" Art Exhibition
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 14 Mar, 2026 at 05:00 pm – Sat, 14 Mar, 2026 at 09:15 pm
- **Event Description**: This month’s GCAA ArtWorks exhibition presents the work of three local artists who have different approaches to creating expressive abstractions in art. Jeanne Heywood, Lee Jensen, and Greg Matthews are all local artists who paint together at The Morean’s Wednesday Expressive Painting class.  

The show is curated by Barb Beyhl, who paints along with them each week. She says, “These three artists create amazing work that they take home, and no one sees it again”. As her first opportunity to curate, Barb invited each artist to participate in sharing a body of their work in this month’s exhibition.  It will be the first gallery solo exhibition for each of them.
•	Jeanne Heywood’s compositions lead the eye around complex shapes both geometric and organic which overlap and dissolve within layered fields of color.  She uses cold wax and oil paint in creating dynamic shapes that hint at metaphors for continuity, connection, and fragments of memory.
•	Greg Matthews works in acrylic to create swirling colors that blend and flow in squiggly lines that can suggest a form that is never clearly defined. He uses fields of color to blur boundaries between abstraction and figurative representation.
•	Lee Jensen's work in acrylic explores structure and movement with bold free brushstrokes that create a dynamic balance between spontaneity with form. His open expression is unhindered by the representational yet often hints at architectural forms.

“The Abstractionists” can be seen through March 28 at GCAA ArtWorks, 5546 1st Avenue N, St. Petersburg, FL. Open hours are: Wednesdays from 11 am to 2 pm and Thursdays through Saturdays from 11 am to 5 pm. A reception will be held March 14 from 5 to 9 featuring music by jazz flutist Bruce Daniels during St. Pete’s Second Saturday Art Walk.
