“Ice Skaters,” oil by Scott Broadfoot, Gallery One artist. December 30, 2020 Gallery One in Ocean View announced its Winter Quiet exhibit will be open to the public from Thursday, Jan. 7 to Wednesday, March 3. Winter’s silence brings the inner quiet that speaks beyond normal words. This month’s theme at Gallery One transports viewers to that place of introspection and peacefulness. Artists were inspired primarily by the local landscape enveloped in winter’s touch but also by those activities only winter brings. Scott Broadfoot’s oil painting, “Ice Skaters,” illustrates this perfectly. “In winter, skaters can be found on virtually any frozen body of water. We have small ponds, lakes, back bays, all of which attract anyone with a pair of skates. If you live near one, on a quiet evening you may hear the sound of steel blades cutting the ice as a figure eight is attempted,” he said.
