Collection: HIDDEN GEMS

Hidden Gems welcomes summer with a celebration of Robert Connell’s simple imperative. Connell is known for his plein-air paintings that utilize sumi ink and gouache on paper. His works are made on location, in the open air, where the light is real and the scene is unrehearsed. These are not grand destinations; they are the kinds of places you pass on a bike ride, a long walk, a detour taken without a plan. Grounded in observation, but luminous with interpretation, each piece carries the feeling of a moment truly inhabited. Join us as we follow Connell’s guidance to go outside and look more closely.
