In the Theatre Lobby Gallery: Flowers and Florida by Christopher Tuscan

“While paintings landscapes regularly over the years has been great. I found myself painting interesting flowers while on location. Then I started setting up a flower still life in the studio. Then another. I painted a variety of flowers and landscapes.  When my exhibition approached I though about what I wanted to present. The term “Flowers & Florida” struck me. Naturally.
I present to you my exhibit: Flowers & Florida.”
