The April show at the Middle Street Gallery is of a quality you would hope to find in Paris, London, or even Washington, D.C.
The drawings of Janies Johnson and the latheturned wood sculptures of Peter Exton, shown together, produce an atmosphere of refinement and elegance. The way that each artist’s work complements the other’s confirms one’s sense that one is seeing outstanding creations.
Some of Peter Exton’s pieces have been seen in previous shows at the gallery, but not in the quantity and variety on display now. James Johnson, of Alexandria, is new to the community.
Twenty-nine of Mr. Johnson’s drawings were handsomely matted and framed for this exhibition by Dan Lewis. The figures are all done with red pencil, essentially flesh colored. Each image, drawn in a classical manner, focuses on the face, and through that, the personality of the model.
