Eclectic Gallery welcomes its Winter Salon next week.

Opening Tuesday, Feb. 7 and continuing through March 31, the Winter Salon features new work by a dozen talented artists.

This display of creativity covers a range of styles and technical achievement.

Among the highlights will be encaustic paintings by Alanna Sparanese, “sublime in their brilliance and other worldly nature.”

Sparanese combines beeswax with resin, oil pigment and photo transfer, then using a blow torch, she fuses the layers together.

Other artists rounding out the show include Chris Alers, Desiree Bond, Martina Edmondson, Krysia Gallien, Naomi Grindlay, Eduard Kajdasz, Susan McGillivray, Avis Rasmussen, Linda Skalenda, Carolina Tudela and Brian Wenger.

Eclectic is closed Mondays in February.
