Charles Basham | January 10 - February 22, 2025

Jerald Melberg Gallery proudly presents a solo exhibition of paintings and pastels by CharlesBasham, spanning his four decades with the gallery. Basham received his B.F.A. and M.F.A. from Kent State University in his native state of Ohio, where he still resides on the family farm. Continuum features the artist’s visually stimulating and emotionally charged landscapes inspired by the place he calls home. The opening reception will be held at the gallery on Friday evening, January 10, with the artist in attendance from 6-8pm. Coffee & Conversation with the artist will be held on Saturday, January 11, at 11am.

Throughout his career, Charles Basham has become more and more attuned to the subtle changes in weather and atmosphere. In his pastels and oil paintings, the energy and impact of light is realized in harmonized color whose saturation and temperature have been pushed and raised beyond previous limits. In doing so, he has captured dramatic and compelling moments of morning and evening light over the farmlands of the Midwest.
