DAMARISCOTTA — The late summer exhibit, “Edgy and Elegant,” opens today at Stable Gallery, 26 Water St.

A reception is planned from 5-7 p.m. The display features paintings, sculpture, prints, metalwork, furniture, ceramics and jewelry.

“Edgy and Elegant” will feature 11 artists in the main room of the stable, while the work of additional artists will be seen in the adjoining stalls. Those featured will include six painters, Rosalind Welsh, Caroline Clare Davis, Penelope Moodey, Bob Thomas, Stephen Mott and Ann Sklar.

Welsh has beautifully sewn canvas for her oil paintings of naturally abstracted forms, while Davis has a whimsical style to her colorful oils and mixed media work. Jewelry is also included in the work of both artists.

Thomas pleases the eye and engages the heart and mind with his heavily textured abstract planes while Sklar, also using abstract planes, reminds the viewer of deep spaces and horizons.

For Moodey, the primary subject is energy, using abstract forms from the natural world, while Mott explores life, myth and relationship in his sculpture-like paintings.

Bill Bellows, an award-winning weaver of rugs, emphasizes loom controlled structures in geometrical blocks. The geometrical can also be seen in Stephen Vowles’ beautiful wooden bowls.

Vowles is always searching for the perfect line and design, and his fascination with how things work shows up in the design of both lamps and bowls.

The handsome wooden trays, lamps and tables by Louis Charlett have well conceived designs and beautifully executed work.

Tom Fontaine, a ceramic artist, works with slab constructed forms with which he creates objects of organic design, while Phyllis Loney, a fiber artist, paints with dyes applied to natural fabrics, using symbols and evocative images and forms from the environment.

The Stable Gallery is open daily from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and will remain open until Oct. 18.

It is located at 26 Water St.
