SUMMARY:2026 Spotlight Series - Reverie in Tonalism
DESCRIPTION:2026 Spotlight SeriesReverie in Tonalism\nTracey Maras & Harry Starr On display July 11\, 2026 through October 3\, 2026 \nOpening Reception July 11\, 2026\, 3:00  – 5:00 pm \nPoetic\, tranquil\, restful\, harmonious\, peaceful\, reverie\, dreamlike\, enchanting\, mysterious\, romantic\, and a sense of metamorphosis. All words to describe Tonalism. \nTonalism is a uniquely American art movement. A movement characterized by harmonious colors\, introspective moods\, and a romantic appreciation for nature. Tonalism originated as the cousin to Europe’s Impressionism\, but in a more subdued and reverent mood. It has become the cornerstone of American landscape painting. \nHarry Starr and Tracey Maras embrace the aesthetics of Tonalism in their work. \nStarr creates a sense of metamorphosis in each of his photographs. Whether landscape or still life\, his pieces evoke mystery\, enchantment\, and elegance. \nMaras conveys an atmosphere of serenity and peaceful tranquility in her pastel paintings. Regardless of subject matter\, there is a connectedness to nature. \nStarr and Maras may utilize different mediums of artistic expression. However\, their work shares a respect and reverence for nature. Themes that weave themselves throughout Tonalism.

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:Taking Command of Your Scene en Plein Air with Shawn Cornell: 10/24/2026 - 10/25/2026
DESCRIPTION:“But that’s how it looked.” is a common cry from artists when defending any stumbling blocks in their paintings. This is one of the earliest excuses artists learn to lean on. It’s a favorite crutch best discarded since art is about creating\, not copying. In this two day\, plein air\, landscape workshop we will focus on strengthening those creative legs\, elevating the imagination and ditching the crutch of “But that’s how it looked.” \nAdditional discussions will touch on:\n• The importance of “Thinking More Before Painting More” – TM • PM\n• Contrast in your paintings beyond just value contrasts\n• Talking to yourself\, constantly asking yourself questions and the importance of self-critiquing\n• Simple tips in dealing with painting outsides in Mother Nature’s ever-changing conditions \nDuring the workshop\, we’ll be having lots of fun doing lots of thinking and painting. During the first day we’ll talk a little\, I’ll demo a little\, and you’ll be painting and sketching a lot. The second day will be a bit of the same in the morning and then you’ll have several hours to create your masterpiece (no pressure). At 2:30\, we will pack-up and go to The Galleries at the Heartland Art Club for more conversions and your painting’s critique. We’ll also have some drawings for any of my demos that survive the weekend. \nHeartland Art Club Members: Enter the member discount code to get 10% off at checkout.\nForgot the discount code? Check your email first—we send members a quarterly email reminder with the member discount code. If you still can’t find it\, please email us (art@heartlandartclub.org) with your name\, email address\, and phone number—we’ll verify your membership status and send you the code. \nNot a member? Sign up here \nRead the Workshop & Class Information & Policies \n2 Day Workshop \nWhen: October 24 through October 25\, 2026\, 9 AM to 4 PM \nClass will begin at 9:00 AM and end at 4:00 PM \nLimited to 15 participants. \n​Location:\nKirkwood Park \n111 S Geyer Rd\, Saint Louis\, MO 63122 \nAND \nGalleries of Heartland Art Club \n101A West Argonne\nKirkwood\, Missouri 63122 \nSuggested Supply ListAbout Shawn CornellAs a plein air painter\, Shawn is outdoors year round attempting to capture on canvas the wonders and beauty of Missouri’s four seasons. His paintings are neither cutting edge nor deep in metaphorical meaning\, they’re simply stories about brief moments that he has experienced and witnessed during his excursions. He hopes these stories connect with the viewer\, sparking a fond memory\, a sense of familiarity or a bit of humor. Each painting is documented with its location\, date\, time of day\, weather conditions\, and brief observations about the day. Many have referred to this documentation as the painting’s birth certificate. \nEmail:  mshawncornellstudio@gmail.com \nWebsite:  mshawncornellstudio.com

SUMMARY:2026 VxVII & Ticket-to-Pick-It Reception
DESCRIPTION:Two Openings — One Reception — Twice the Fun!Join us on Saturday\, October 24\, 2026\, from 3:00 to 6:00 pm as we open two shows at once. Wine and light snacks will be served while you browse both exhibitions and meet the artists behind the work. \nTicket-to-Pick-It\, Heartland Art Club’s Ticket to Pick It fundraiser\, returns this year with donated artwork valued at $250 or more from our member artists. Tickets are $100 each\, and ticket holders rank their favorite pieces ahead of the drawing. Names are drawn at random\, and each winner receives their top remaining choice\, working down their list if an earlier pick has already been claimed. \nThe VxVII Show fills the gallery with original 5″ x 7″ artwork from artists across the region. Small in scale but full of variety\, VxVII is a favorite each year for collectors\, first-time buyers\, and anyone looking for a piece of original art that’s easy to bring home. With subject matter wide open\, no two pieces in the show look alike. \nDonate to Ticket-to-Pick-ItEnter the VxVII Show

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.
