Lynn Alker, in her own words:
“The mystery of abstraction speaks to me. Without thought as to the outcome, my oil and acrylic paintings on canvas, paper and wood, begin with mark making and then evolve into what I call, “conclusions”. For me, there is a great anticipation throughout the process as I watch the work developing, turning, and arriving at places and ideas, much like the way a conversation does. I start with marks that often include symbols, words, phrases, then boldly apply color and texture. I mostly enjoy working on hard wood boards which allow to me gouge, excise, and dig into the paint with layers, which are often created with materials such as pastels and coffee. With these materials, I can build the surface and create the foundation for even more experimentation.”

Every painting has a story.
Sometimes, the story of the painting itself is just the beginning. This one takes us from a working ranch in Wyoming to the front doors of The Centerpiece in Raleigh, North Carolina. And it has a particularly lovely ending.

When we learned that we would be hosting LIMITLESS, the Women Artists of the West's 56th National Exhibition, we selected Elise Mahaffie's extraordinary painting, “Duty and Pride,” to grace our invitation.

Little did we know the wonderful story that would unfold around it.

Meet Faith Hamlin.
Faith is the remarkable young woman portrayed in Elise Mahaffie's “Duty and Pride.” Faith calls Little Jennie Ranch in Bondurant, Wyoming, home. Through Mahaffie's artistry, we are given a glimpse into Faith's world, one shaped by the hard work and enduring beauty of ranch life in the American West.

We gave “Duty and Pride” a place of honor on the gallery's main entrance wall, where it welcomes visitors to LIMITLESS.

And on Friday evening, as we celebrated the opening of LIMITLESS, the painting welcomed someone with a very special connection to its subject.

Faith’s mother purchased the painting after seeing the piece featured in the exhibition. And to our absolute delight, she joined us at Friday evening's opening reception.

What a privilege to meet her and share in this beautiful moment!

A painting inspired by a young woman's life in Wyoming found its way to an exhibition in Raleigh, and ultimately into the hands of someone for whom it holds a meaning far beyond the canvas. A lovely reminder of what makes art so extraordinary. Every piece has a story, and sometimes we get the joy of becoming a small part of it.

Our sincere thanks to the Women Artists of the West, artist Elise Mahaffie, and the Hamlin family for a story we won't soon forget.

Jeff Koehn is known for richly textured paintings that balance radiant color with refined technique. Working in oil and acrylic, he draws inspiration from Vermeer’s mastery of light and John Singer Sargent’s expressive elegance. His distinctive use of dry brushwork brings depth and subtle movement to each composition.
