Meet April Artist Caitlin Flynn at the City’s monthly artist reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday, April 20, at Adele Grage Cultural Center, 716 Ocean Blvd. Her exhibit of contemporary, figurative, and landscape paintings will be displayed throughout March.

Flynn works with the concept of memory in her studies, often beginning with a specific experience – either her own or inspired by a photograph. Memory is fluid; figures are intentionally kept loose and gestural. She plays with paint. Like memory, it’s sometimes lush and vibrant, sometimes thin and dripping away. Land and seascapes are broad and dreamy, stripped of specificity. Color, composition and mood dominate the landscape. Her most recent work draws attention to the American Dream.
