Winter reminds us of the power of nature and the importance of home. Few artists capture these themes with quite as much justice as landscape artist Warren Neary. The wintry scenes of Warren Neary’s oil paintings put into perspective the majesty and power of nature – simultaneously awe-inspiring and foreboding – alongside small, powerful moments of human resilience and solace. The tiny manmade details in Warren Neary’s landscape work, like the small structures at the base of the mountain in his work “Into Silver Hour,” sparkle with the promise of shelter and warmth. This beautiful portrayal of home in the winter mountains resonates all the more deeply in this winter season.

Plus, the new sculpture work of Havoc Hendricks pairs perfectly with this portrayal of the power of nature. Havocs delivers a sense of boldness and strength on a small scale with his work “Snow Capped Onyx.”

The detailed minimalism of Havoc Hendrick’s mountain works express the simple, refined beauty of the mountaintops, especially in winter. The intricate white lines call to mind the rugged rock and pristine white snow of ski runs, like those in and around our beloved Park City. Plus, the crisp lines and bold, wintry colors of this grid wall harmonize beautifully with a more modern home like the one pictured here.
