| The
Charles Harris Library Gallery is pleased to present Under a Virginia Sky, paintings
by Steven Walker. Walker's paintings are
primarily landscapes around Virginia, with an emphasis on the sky,
light, storms and atmosphere. The moodiness is an impressionistic
interpretation of the world around him and a reflection of a deep
appreciation of the land in a way that connects him to the rich
tradition of landscape painting evident in the VMFA collection. His
sweeping views of rural areas, dominated by a powerful, active sky
above, capture the beauty of Virginia.
This exhibition is part
of a statewide partnership with the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. All

About the Artist: Walker is an emerging artist and adjunct professor of painting at VCU and Virginia State University.
