The solo exhibition by Adam Grosowsky is in its final week at Roby King Gallery in Winslow.

Grosowsky’s large oil paintings are studies in light and dark, distinguished by dramatic contrasts – light or bright color against large areas of rich, dark backgrounds. His focus is on portraits of women, often including animals; figures within interior settings and landscapes.

Much of Grosowsky’s training was in printmaking. He received his bachelor of arts degree in fine arts from Evergreen State College, followed by a M.A., M.F.A. in printmaking from University of Iowa, where he studied under Mauricio Lasansky and Keith Achepohl.

He is a full-time art faculty member who teaches painting and drawing at Lane Community College in Eugene, Oregon.

The exhibition runs through Aug. 26.

Roby King Gallery is at 176 Winslow Way East.
