Two opportunities to experience the remarkable work of Laurence Channing at the Bonfoey Gallery!

The opening of “Laurence Channing: Then and Now” will be here before you know it, and this is one you won’t want to miss.

Join us at the Bonfoey Gallery on Friday, November 6, from 5-7 PM to explore drawings and paintings spanning 3 decades of Channing’s career.

In conjunction with the exhibition, the gallery is also hosting “Coffee & Conversation,” on Saturday, November 14, from 10 AM - 12 PM.

Our October Artist of the Month is Andrea Joki! Andrea Joki

There’s a lot to discover in a single line. In Joki’s paintings, stripes give way to loose brushwork, colors peek through layered surfaces, and repeated marks reveal small variations. Each work has its own pace, inviting the eye to follow a different path.

Drawing on experiences of travel and place, Joki explores time, change, and perception through an open approach to painting. The works featured here offer a glimpse of that range, from spare gray strokes to dense networks of color.

📷 Our September Artist of the Month: Tim Lachina! Tim Lachina

Cleveland photographer Tim Lachina finds beauty in industrial landscapes and overlooked places. Through dramatic contrasts and careful framing, he reveals the beauty in steel mills, railways, and the structures that shape these landscapes. He describes his approach as a “visual haiku;” a few carefully chosen elements that leave room for the viewer’s imagination.

A graphic designer and art director for more than 30 years, Lachina brings a keen eye for form to his photography. His work was featured in Two Views at The Bonfoey Gallery, and his book Abandoned America was selected for an exhibition at the Cleveland Museum of Art.

For the month of August, we’re celebrating Amber Kempthorn as our Artist of the Month!

Amber’s drawings explore nostalgia, memory, and the passage of time. Each composition is built through layers of acrylic ink, graphite, gouache, watercolor, and collage. Familiar objects, birds, expansive skies, and Midwestern landscapes gather in unexpected arrangements, transforming pieces of everyday life into dreamlike reflections on what is fleeting, remembered, and lost.

Although the human figure never appears, its presence is felt throughout her work; whether it be from an overturned bottle, a feather, or a pair of shoes. These ordinary subjects become records of lived experience, suggesting the people, places, and moments that remain with us.

Kempthorn’s work has been exhibited throughout the United States, including in the 2026 Great Lakes Drawing Biennial, inaugural FRONT International, and at the Akron Art Museum. She is an Associate Professor of Drawing at the Cleveland Institute of Art and lives and works in Hiram, Ohio.
