Randall M. Good’s ‘The Life of Paul Commission’ on Display in UAM Glassblock Gallery
“The Life of Paul commission,” an exhibition of paintings by Randall M. Good, can be viewed in the Glassblock Gallery in the Fred J. Taylor Library and Technology Center at the University of Arkansas at Monticello from August 25 to September 21. Gallery hours are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The nine paintings in this commissioned series portray both the historical and the spiritual path of the apostle’s journey with each image focusing on the spiritual impact of a narrative episode from Paul’s life. Good masterfully blends and reinterprets elements from the Italian Mannerists, the European Early and Late Renaissance and Art Nouveau with symbolism into compositions of stunning beauty and originality. These works are nuanced in their execution of sensuous and precise line, watercolor effects, blended oils or pastel and areas of gold leaf designs and symbols.
Randall M. Good is a full-time artist based in the Dallas-Fort Worth/North Texas area, where he splits his work between gallery exhibitions and commissions. He has exhibited across the United States and England and has works in collections, both public and private, throughout the United States and Europe.
On September 21 at 1 p.m., Good will give a presentation/discussion of his art and life. On September 21 from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m., a closing reception will be held for the exhibition. The exhibition and events are free and open to the public.
