I am trying to revitalize the Treasure Coast art scene through my online gallery. I moved up to the Treasure Coast from South Florida, and I have been disappointed with the lack of cutting edge art in the area. I feel that one doesn’t need to go down to South Beach to find bold and colorful abstract and psychedelic art. I know that the talent is here, and I know that the interest of the community exists, but currently there is no forum for new art here in Port St Lucie, Stuart and Fort Pierce. The local art scene trades too much in the old Florida Standards – sailboats, beach scenes and palm trees. Those things are nice, but they don’t plumb the depths of emotion that happens when one stops editing and jusrt creates. My eventual goal is to set up an alternative art show on the Treasure Coast, but know I am looking to fill my online gallery with like minded artists that want to show color and expression “up here”. I prefer treasure coast artists, but I will consider artists from Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Orlando and the surrounding areas if they are willing in the future to come to show their work at the eventual physical show Please send three examples of your work to courtney@courtneyloceff.com for consideration Help me juspstart the NEW Treasure Coast art scene
