Gallery North, Prolonged Perception Recent Paintings by Doug Reina through May 22, 2022

Prolonged Perception 
Recent Paintings by Doug Reina

On View at Gallery North 
April 7 - May 22

Doug Reina’s first solo exhibition at Gallery North, Prolonged Perception: Recent Paintings by Doug Reina highlights the artist’s exploration of obscure, ordinary spaces of contemporary life that are often shielded from view. Austere, brooding compositions, Reina’s paintings find a dream-like emptiness within back streets, shacks, and overgrown backyards. Each painting begins black. Color and form are added over a black ground, lifting them out of the picture plane. Colors blast forth. There are broad flashes of light, but the black ground remains visible everywhere. It pops out between brushstrokes or creates a colossal abyss below buildings, pulling the rug out from underneath them. There is a rootlessness here. We wander in some lucid dream, half remembered; amid dark voids and divine light. He leads us into a space of sharp contrasts, one in which our eye fragments into the surface it contemplates. 
Edward M. Puchner 
Executive Director 
Gallery North

Classes here at the studio are structured to suit the individual needs of each student, with an emphasis on developing their own unique, creative approach to painting.

Beginners to experienced painters are welcome.

The Saturday class gives the student the choice to work in either a three hour session, or if they wish to continue working, they can stay for an additional two hours and complete a 5 hour session.

For those of you who would like to try oil painting, but don't have any any paint, I am offering, for an additional fee, an option where I provide an easel and paint.

Pricing

3 hour class is $60 - if a student needs to use my supplies, it's $75
5 hour class is $80 - if a student needs to use my supplies, it's $90


The space in my studio is limited - I can accommodate up to 6 students.
If you'd like to reserve a space in a class, email me the date you'd like to attend. My email is art@dougreina.com


There is also some room in my Thursday class if you're interested in that. Please note, I do not offer a 5 hour session for that class.

If you would like to take a class but can't make these times, let me know if there's another time that works better for you. I am even open to the idea of doing some one on one sessions.

Thank you everybody. Hope to hear from some of you soon.

Oil Painting Lessons with Doug Reina


Oil Painting Lessons with Doug Reina

Recently I have been asked if I could offer an oil painting class for beginners, as well as an additional class for intermediate students at my studio on Main Street in Setauket.
Since my Tuesday class is currently full, I am looking to add classes for eitherWednesday or Thursday morning, starting at 10:00 a.m.
The Beginner's class will teach the student the fundamentals of oil painting and also provide instruction on how to go about painting the subject before them.
The Intermediate class is for the student who has experience working with oils but wants to expand their creative approach in making their own unique work.
Both classes involve working in the studio, as well as painting outdoors. There are also times when the class will hire a model to work with.
If you're interested in taking either one of these classes please let me know soon as space is limited - once I have a few more students enrolled, we can get a class started.
Classes are for 3 hours and cost $60 each or $225 for 4 sessions. (materials are not included)
If you'd like to sign up or have questions, You can email me at art@dougreina.comor call me at 631 664 1339.
