SUMMARY:2026 Solo Spotlight Series - Erin Blumer - Light\, Water\, & Care
DESCRIPTION:Erin Blumer – Light\, Water\, & Care: St. Louis Flora in Watercolor for Barnes-Jewish HospitalOpening Reception Friday\, October 9\, 2026\, from 6:00 to 8:00 \nOn Display October 8\, 2026 – January 9\, 2027 \nWhen Barnes-Jewish Hospital commissioned watercolor paintings for the patient rooms of its new Plaza West Tower\, they turned to St. Louis artist Erin Blumer. The brief: create original works rooted in the botanical life of the city\, one set of paintings for each of the tower’s 12 patient floors\, each floor representing a different garden or natural area. Blumer spent a year visiting Forest Park\, the Missouri Botanical Garden\, and Shaw Nature Reserve\, observing plants through their peak seasons and translating what she found into 34 original watercolors. Those paintings now live\, as large-format reproductions\, on the walls of patient rooms throughout the tower. \nThis exhibition brings the original works together\, alongside 12 new paintings created specifically for this show. The full collection spans prairies\, woodland gardens\, iris beds\, and native shade plantings\, all rendered in Blumer’s characteristic style\, where careful observation and abstract qualities of light\, texture\, and color work together. If you’ve been a patient at Plaza West Tower\, you may recognize some of these paintings. If you haven’t\, this is a rare chance to see the originals up close.

SUMMARY:Forgotten: North St. Louis Homes One Year Later by Sandy Haynes
DESCRIPTION:On display from September 23\, 2026\, through October 17\, 2026 \nThis exhibit is free and open to the public. \nIn May 2025\, a devastating tornado tore through North St. Louis\, damaging homes\, neighborhoods\, and landmarks across the city. In the days that followed\, Heartland Art Club founding member Sandy Haynes began documenting what remained—not with a camera alone\, but through paint. \nForgotten: North St. Louis Homes One Year Later brings together approximately fourteen works from Haynes’ ongoing series inspired by the tornado and its aftermath. Her paintings depict damaged and partially destroyed homes with an artist’s sensitivity to architecture\, place\, light\, and memory. Buildings that might otherwise be seen only as evidence of destruction become portraits of the lives and communities they once sheltered. \nA longtime painter and educator\, Haynes has spent decades creating portraits\, landscapes\, florals\, and architectural subjects. In this deeply personal body of work\, she turns her attention to a city changed by disaster\, preserving a visual record of places that may eventually be repaired\, transformed\, or lost altogether. \nThe exhibition follows recent recognition of Haynes and the series in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and offers visitors an opportunity to experience this important body of work together at Heartland Art Club.
