Our First Friday Artist Spotlight returns with a gallery popup by local artist Tom Skelly!<\/p>\n

Tom Skelly is a Portland visual artist and radio show host for The Sound of Pictures movie music
\nand soundtrack show at XRAY.FM. He continually finds wonder in the power of facial
\nexpressions embedded in psychological ambience. They are intertwined through non-verbal
\ncommunication and body language.<\/p>\n

The paintings in this exhibition are derived from freeze framed movie stills that carry his
\nmessage. The short videos are mostly made as promos for his radio shows.
\nThe Sound of Pictures airs on-demand and streaming at XRAY.FM, and on the radio at 107.1 &
\n91.1fm. More of his art can be viewed online at tomskelly.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Since the mid-80\u2019s, Tom Skelly\u2019s art world includes studio arts & exhibiting, radio shows, and an
\nartist-in-residence gig for prisoners.<\/p>\n
