Gordy Fine Art & Framing Co.
224 E. Main
Gordy Fine Art and Framing is proud to highlight the art of graphic artist John Morris who has lived in Muncie since 2014. The party will be on First Thursday, April 4, from 5 – 8 pm. The artist will be on hand. Light refreshments will be served, and the public is invited to attend.For this exhibition, Morris has made layered collages with physical clippings from comic books which he then translates into digital pixelated images in a computer program allowing them to be interpreted as a pattern for his larger-scale compositions made of Perler Beads.
Perler Beads originated as a therapeutic hobby for the elderly and is a medium far removed from the immediacy of digital design. His use of round beads introduces a contrast with the square pixels typical of digital images. The labor-intensive nature of working with the beads, which requires assembling thousands of beads by hand and fusing them together with heat, serves as a method for Morris to "reclaim labor."
At 6:15, John will speak about his work and his process.
The exhibit will remain on view through April 27.
Gordy Fine Art and Framing Company promotes talented artists and offers expert design and craftsmanship for framing and displaying treasured family possessions and works of art. Summer Invitational may also be viewed through the end of August during regular business hours: Monday through Friday, 9 am – 5:30 pm, Saturday, 10 am – 3 pm. Gordy Fine Art and Framing Company is located at 224 East Main Street, next door to Muncie Civic Theatre. For more information, visit www.gordyframing.com or call 765-284-8422.
Made in Muncie
313 S. Walnut
Made In Muncie will have an opening reception for artist Aimee Maychack on April 4th from 5-8pm From the Artist: My artwork is an invitation to the viewer to step into the narrative, to insert themselves into the stories I tell through color, lives, texture, and imagination. For my story I focus on queerness, connections, sense of self from my own life and patterns, textures, and images from nature infiltrate my art. It compels the viewer to confront preconceived notions, reject binary thinking, and hold two ideas at once. My stories, my art, generate a dialog with you. What stories would you tell?Madjax Muncie

Various locations
Nick Martin is the Muncie Artists Guild's “Artist of the Month” for April 2024.Nick’s Artist Statement/Bio:
I'm a local artist who loves to paint, draw, and experiment with art materials. I mostly do genre paintings: portraits, still lifes, landscapes, and abstracts. I like to work on a small scale so I can put in lots of details and move on to a fresh idea within a sitting or two. I earned my MFA from SIUE in Drawing and Studio Art, studied at Purdue, Alma College, and NMU. I started an Art group called Yorktown Art Lover's League in 2023, we meet every third Wednesday of the month at Smith Street Studios from 5-8pm. I teach art classes at the Cornerstone Center for the Arts and the YOC, do private art lessons, and teach tennis at the YMCA. I love teaching, probably because I've had some really exceptional teachers and am very curious. I try to make my classrooms and events as fun and educational as possible. It's great to see people with little art experience become surprised and enthusiastic about making more art, and it's always good to spend time with playful and creative people. My favorite part about art is sharing what I love and building our art community. People that make things have to put themselves out there a little, you have to be brave and genuine to do that.His work will be shown at the following locations: Northwest Bank (E Charles), Old National Bank (S Madison), Rosebud Coffee House, Vera Mae's Bistro, and Parlour Salon.
