ASPECT EXHIBITION - GREG BENZ, Holly Ann Friesen & Richard Sturgeon
The first show of the year at The Benz Gallery will feature 3 artists that have been with the gallery since it opened almost 3 years ago.
WELCOME SUE MCNENLY TO THE BENZ GALLERY
Welcome the incredible encaustic work of @suemcnenly into the gallery!
Sue’s encaustic work is intertwined with precious metals & watercolors, it’s so unique and different and is a perfect fit here @thebenzgallery.
We have been after Sue since we opened as we are such fans of her process, and actually already have quite a few pieces in our personal collection. 😁.
The 4 new pieces are now available in the gallery and available online. Head to the website to view them and find out more about Sue’s work.
GORDON HARRISON @ THE BENZ GALLERY
💥New Exhibition is up! We are featuring award winning artist Gordon Harrison in the center room of the gallery. We just received 4 larger pieces into the gallery and each one is better than the next 😁

Its a great line up of all Canadian Artists featuring the very best in representational and slightly abstracted landscapes. This show will run for the month of October and we will be switching things up from week to week.
Nicole Schultz & Alvin Ray
The next Exhibition at Benz Gallery will feature two of our artists who use bright, bold colours alongside hard edge lines within their work. Each artist will be taking a full room in the gallery to showcase their latest work.
Nicole Schultz graduated Western University with her Bachelor of Fine Arts, Honours Degree with a specialization in Studio Art in 2012. Following, Nicole continued on to receive her Bachelors of Education with Honours. Nicole is an Independent Custom Framer, Artist and Writer, in various mediums including Acrylic, Ink, and Mixed Media with a signature minimalist aesthetic that connects all of her work. Whether in single line ink drawings, bold hard edge paintings, or sculptural wall constructions, Nicole's work channels emotion, dreams and mysticism with a sharp clean style that is always recognizably hers.
Nicole's retro, yet very modern style of painting has become a favorite here at the gallery. Her fractured frame series have found their way into collections across Canada, USA and abroad. She will be experimenting with new colours, sizes and elements within her work for this exhibition.
Alvin Ray is the latest artist to be represented by Benz Gallery, He's Based in Oakville, Ontario, Alvin enjoys painting and experimenting with landscapes, cityscapes, and abstract pieces. Letting go and taking shapes and color to another level is when he enjoys painting the most. Alvin's landscapes have quickly gained a large following because of his strong colour combinations and signature painting style. The way he paints is not quite like anyone else we've seen and this show will highlight some of his larger work for the first time.
Two fantastic artists with two very different directions, but with some very interesting similarities within their work. It's going to make a very interesting and dynamic show.
