Local artist, Victor Corey brings his talents to Genesee Community College’s Lobby Art Gallery with “Watercolor Landscapes,” large scale watercolor paintings that capture nature and the outdoors in beautiful detail. The “Watercolor Landscapes” exhibit will run October 15 through December 1, 2009.
Victor Corey is a Batavia native and has worked in the arts his entire life. He previously worked as a technical illustrator and has taken up painting as a hobby over the last few years. His exhibit in the Lobby Art Gallery is his first public showing and will consist of approximately 16 pieces. His works depict landscapes, various sportsmen themed panoramas, including fishing and hunting, as well as travel themed pieces from his travels throughout Germany.
“We’re pleased to have Victor’s inaugural showing at the Lobby Art Gallery,” Heather Jones, instructor of Fine Arts said. “Genesee Community College is a wonderful outlet for our community members to showcase their creative talents. Whether it’s a first time exhibitor, or a seasoned artist, Genesee welcomes an assortment of exhibitors to the gallery.”
Victor Corey’s Watercolor Landscapes Exhibit is free and open to the public. The Lobby Art Gallery is housed inside the Stuart Steiner Theatre at the Batavia Campus and is open during normal academic hours.
