GALLERY NEWS
CATHY TATE'S LATEST COMMISSION
Gallery artist, Cathy Tate was commissioned by homeowners, Mike & Wendy Spargo, to create a 6 foot by 6 foot centerpiece for their beautiful mountain home. They wanted a landscape, but in Cathy’s representational abstract style. After the piece was created, the Spargos shared this photo of a very special place in South Africa called Mjejane. They decided to title the piece after this game and safari preserve.
“Mike is from South Africa… and we visited a friend of his who bought a house in the Mjejane game reserve… just outside of Kruger National Park, a renowned preserve and safari. Literally translated, Mjejane means black rhino. We came to associate one’s special place, the place one calls “home”, with Mjejane. So, when we built our house in Marietta, we refer to it as Mjejane. A special place for us.”

SARAH FARRAR'S LATEST MURAL COMMISSION
AGGG artist, Sarah Farrar, recently completed a mural for Mitchell Road Elementary. Sarah comments on this project:
My latest mural work with a Greenville County School is rooted in reflecting the identity and values of each school community. At Mitchell Road Elementary, I designed two murals that visually embody the “Mustang Mission,” celebrating effort, curiosity, leadership, and growth through bold color, movement, and engaging imagery. By translating these guiding principles into vibrant, immersive environments, the work not only enhanced the space but reinforced a shared culture of encouragement, resilience, and pride for every student.
I’m deeply grateful to Principal Warner and the school PTO for the opportunity to contribute to such a meaningful project.
