From the Movement into Light Exhibition:


Oil on canvas paintings from The Ceiling Paintings series by Biff Elrod, lush with color, highlight movement. As the moon and the stars are in constant motion, so are earthly beings. Known for his figurative style, Elrod's new series shows optimism and grace in the walk of life.
