Two Artists - One Very Interesting Exhibit

During the month of October, Evansville Art Center’s Gallery space is shared by two very gifted artists – Matt Bakke and TJ Pendergast.

Matt Bakke works in wood. His turned-wood creations are sure to capture your imagination.  His designs reflect the natural beauty of the wood he uses; each piece holding a personality of its own. His stunning works of art including bowls, vases, and figurines showcase the unique grain of the wood it was turned from.

TJ Pendergast is a visual artist and jewelry maker. She started painting with watercolors in 2022 after losing partial vision in one eye. She says sitting in front of an easel in her home was therapeutic. TJ wants to show her impression of the missing piece in an unexpected way through watercolor.
By bringing these two artists’ amazing work together in one exhibit space, it creates a veritable feast for the eyes with all of the shapes, colors, and textures represented in wood, watercolor and jewelry! Not only great viewing in the Gallery, but wonderful pieces to make your own or give to those you care about!

This exhibition runs from October 3 - 31 and may be seen during regular Gallery hours on Fridays and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Evansville Art Center is located at 111 Main Street in Evansville and is handicap accessible.
