Paper Trail

Dec. 11, 2020-Jan. 24, 2021
Reception: Dec. 11, 6-9 PM
Shemchuk’s large-scale mixed media paintings consist of multiple panels, which are created with layers of household paint and collaged paper that are abraded and ripped. His compositions dance with gestures, calligraphic marks and symbols. This exhibit includes his ‘surface tension’ works on paper, a unique process for using pressure and water to print colors dissolved from different papers into a painterly composition, which will be created in the gallery over the course of part of the exhibit.
This exhibit is sponsored by Tom Doyle & Kathy Joseph.

Layaway Plan for Artwork Purchase
|
If you are interested in purchasing one of our available artworks, but are not in a hurry and would like to make payments overtime, we offer a wonderful layaway program.
First, staff will clear the layaway sale with the artist. A down payment of 30% of the total purchase price will enable clients to secure an item. Patrons can make payments with
cash, check, or credit card for up to 90 days. After the deposit is paid, patrons can make equal payments, or pay off in full, during this 90 day time period. A layaway contract will help you outline a payment schedule that works for you and the Gallery. There is no charge for the Layaway Plan. The down payment is not returnable once it is paid. Any other payments that are made on the artwork cannot be returned if the buyer decides not to purchase the artwork.
This Layaway Plan is available, subject to approval by staff and Artist, for any piece that is $250 retail and over and can be safely stored. All purchases must include sales tax (8.25%).
Once the balance is paid in full, you will be notified to pick up the artwork.
The Pence Gallery accepts the following methods of payment:
– All major credit and debit cards, including
– Cash, and personal checks with identification
