The gallery, that is - Old Town Gallery Fine Aits, one of the best arid oldest in Park City. My eyes go immediately to a series of charming, small sculptured statues; each of them simplified to the basic form of the object it represents " Parrot and Branch" and "Flamingo" are just two of the group of cast bronzes. As I move from one small piece to another, admiring the beautiful patinas, I ask a couple of questions. Who's the artist? Where does he live? Where did he go to school? The typical kind of questions an art critic reporter must ask. Blain Gerald Black was born in Monterey. Calif., and later attended Carmel High School, Carmel. Calif. From there, he went to the Monterey Sculpture Center The answers made me smile with memories of wonderful wonder-ful years. Teaching art at Carmel High School was my first position alter graduating from college. The aits are the life of the village vil-lage and with the support of the Carmel Art Association, I created creat-ed the Carmel Festival of Arts for California High Schools. In the first year, some 112 high schools throughout California participated. It was a wonderful experience. "As a sophomore." states Black. "I took a wood shop class and developed my first sculptural sculptur-al interest in the medium of wood. My teacher was great and he ordered special pieces of wood so that I might further ' dev elop my interest in three-dimensional three-dimensional forms. Gradually. I moved on to the more difficult medium of alabaster and began to create form in nature's oldest PHOTO COURTESY OF OLD TOWN GALLERY "The Offering," a painting by Jed Thomas, tells the story of Eve and the infamous apple. medium, stone." At the Monterey Sculpture Center, he saw many possibilities and became interested in the process of bronze sculpting. Today, he is well knoun for his charming creative pieces, but his greatest claim to fame worldwide world-wide is knowledge and use of patinas. Among artists to whose work he has applied patinas are Loet Vanderveen. Randy Puckett and Jack Zajac. In addition, addi-tion, he has repaired a number of large outdoor sculptures, including the 14-foot bronze sculpture of Duke Kahanamoku on Waikiki Beach. Parrot and Branch" and the others before me were originally created in wax and then cast by the lost wax process. The artist is certainly a credit to my old Carmel High School. Then there is Jed Thomas, with the comment, "My images are the result of many influences. influ-ences. It would be hard to sort out which has had the most impact on my work. However: I would include perceptions from childhood and works of artists from the past as my primary sources." Certainly, contemporary artists have had no influence on the pieces before me. "The Offering," a small oil on wood, shows Eve and an angel standing by two dark trunks of trees. In Eve's hand is "the apple" and it appears as if the angel, with hand outstretched is making the motion for "no-no." The painting paint-ing is of daik. almost gloomy, colors except for the highlight on Eve s body and the head of the angel. A black frame surrounds the painting, as are all of the artist's creations in the gallery. "As a child." says the artist. "1 remember my world being a curious and often unexplainable mix of events. I also remember feeling excited about magical possibilities of things. Through drawing, 1 found I could reconcile recon-cile the thin line that existed between my imagination and reality. In my drawings. I sorted out these 'mysteries' in the form of a visual story. My current images. I think, reflect my early interest in being a storyteller. I intend for my images to be provocative and suggest to the viewers that they are getting a glimpse of an ambiguous drama taking place somew here, perhaps in a dream." i "Dawn" shows two figures lying down.

PHOTO COURTESY Of OLD TOWN GALLERY Blain Gerald Black's "Parrot and Branch" is one of several cast bronze sculptures on display at Old Town Gallery. mostly in shadow is the same color to be found in the other paintings hanging near. The figures, fig-ures, a male and a female, are enclosed in what I imagine are sleeping bags, but look more like a cocoon in the painted light. "Most of the visual elements in my work reflect rny interest in drawing the figure. I fee! a strong kinship to artists from the past who are able to elegantly convey the figure in a variety of contexts. I am interested in rich textures and surface qualities that are the result of constantly re-working the image. These images emerge spontaneously and are often distorted according accord-ing to my. personal aesthetic, "It is my hope that my work'",' conveys a sense of beautv and a appoints new conductor Festival program on Aug. 3, but he will also be seen as a guest conductor in "The Broadway Centurv" concerts on Julv 7 and 8 at Abravanel Hall and Deer Yallev.
