Exhibit in the Art Hall: November 4-December 20

Artists: Lillie Morris & Roxane Hollosi

Artist Bios:

Lillie Morris

Georgia artist Lillie Morris works in acrylic as well as mixed media collage to create abstract paintings. Her creative impulses are divided between her love of both mediums and she enjoys the diversity in her work that results. Her artwork is included in many private and corporate collections and has been shown in exhibitions throughout the southeast and in County Kerry Ireland.

Her love of nature informs Lillie’s abstract work. Her memory of the landscape and waterways of her native state of Georgia serve as the inspiration for many of her paintings, which often include rhythmic, gestural mark making. Ireland, its music and its landscape also inform Lillie’s work and her intense interest in Ireland has taken her there numerous times. Lillie has enjoyed three residencies at Cill Rialaig Artist Retreat near Ballingskelligs, Co. Kerry. (2006, 2009, 2018) and two residencies with Olive Stack Gallery in Listowel, Co. Kerry, Ireland (2016, 2017).

In addition to her artwork, Lillie enjoys playing traditional Irish music. Her classical training on the violin, which began in her childhood, equipped her to embrace the Irish fiddling tradition when the music captured her heart in the late 1990’s.

Lillie and her husband Bill reside on a farm near Appling, GA. She is represented in Augusta by Art on Broad Gallery, The Frame Shoppe, Wesley Cadle Interiors and West End Collective.

Roxane Hollosi

Roxane is an Atlanta based, multi-disciplinary artist. Originally from the midwest, she was influenced by the Native American spiritual sensibilities and respect for the Earth she encountered there. The core themes of her art practice continue to involve the importance of a healthy Mother Earth and our connection and dependance on Her.

“My Art is a visual document of the spiritual, social and environmental energies I encounter in that moment of creating. I want to encourage others to see; to be curious and use visual discoveries, within my work, to foster awareness about our environment and our participation in it.
