Paintings by David Roholt
Wednesday, October 16, 5-7pm
University Gallery at Pacific Lutheran University

Join us for the opening of *Paintings by David Roholt *on Wednesday,
October 16 from 5-7pm.
In his painting, David Roholt transforms the
familiar. The work balances the abstract and the representational, creating
dimension through contrasting color and surface texture. Free, refreshments
will be provided.
“My goal is not to mimic and copy the obvious, but rather to produce work
that departs from the familiar. Subject matter largely acts as an
inspirational catalyst in my work. Swimmers, boats, figures, railroad cars,
mountains, trees, and various observed forms orchestrate as a springboard
in my art making process,” writes Roholt in his artist statement.
“Personally, it is not merely a question of what to depict, but rather how
to reinvent and transform the subject into a more abstracted image.”

Wine and Cheese Reception. Exhibition runs October 16 – November 13. For
directions visit here.
