Madison Artists Guild is excited to welcome Atlanta artist Lisa Guyton to MAGallery for her one-woman exhibition titled Places Far and Near.
Ms. Guyton is a visual artist who grew up in Cleveland, Ohio and has called Atlanta home since 1995. She holds a Master of Fine Art in Painting from American University in Washington, D.C. and credits her experience working at the Phillips Collection, a private museum in D.C. featuring post-impressionist and modernist work, as a major influence. She is drawn to nature for inspiration, which is reflected in her oil paintings of landscapes and watercolor studies of flowers. “My connection to place has been a strong presence in my work. I strive to express the essence of the subject with the least amount of fussiness.”
In Places Far and Near, Lisa strives to communicate the unique beauty of select land- and cityscapes ranging from the western United States to western Ireland, and from Conecuh County, Alabama to Chamblee, Georgia. Her connection to nature and keen observation under natural light conditions often results in realistic images that authentically capture specific atmospheres, light and colors.
MAGallery is excited to include Ms. Guyton as one of its 2023 special exhibitions showcasing original artwork of emerging and established artists from outside the local community.
MAGallery, a retail art gallery supporting local artists and authors and their talents, is operated by Madison Artists Guild, a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to education and the encouragement of artistic endeavor in its members and the community.

" HOME IS . . .", the 2023 Guild Members juried exhibition, features 2-D and 3-D work from twenty-seven regional artists.
The public is invited to meet the artists, view and shop the exhibition, and enjoy light refreshments and musical entertainment from 6 – 8 PM on Friday, June 9.
Participating artists were challenged to interpret the word ‘home’ and the different, meaningful ways the word can be perceived and represented. Each original creation will delight the viewer and challenge their perception of what ‘home’ is.
