Paseo Arts & Creativity Center, 3024 Paseo
GALLERY I - The Art of Wandering - Greg Stone
The Art of Wandering is the exhibit of landscape painter Greg Stone. Inspired by casual travels and spontaneous exploration, Stone intends to highlight the beauty of unexpected places found along backroads and rural paths. With scenes ranging from quiet creeks to open fields and winding country roads, The Art of Wandering is a celebration of discovering the extraordinary in the ordinary. When painting landscapes, Stone breaks down the scene to essential components, whether they are shapes or pattens of light, he believes the elements of the painting are what help capture the mood and feeling of the particular place. Stone theorizes that if his process can help capture an environment into a painting, then this can inspire his viewers to slow down, pay attention and appreciate what the natural world has to offer.
GALLERY II - PAA Members’ Show
Every year, the Paseo Arts Association showcases the talents of its supportive members with an exclusive juried show: the PAA Members’ Show. This year, the show features work from 40 talented local artists who are PAA Members! It was juried by Clint Stone, an artist with over 25 years of creative experience. During that time, Stone has performed roles in organizations such as the Philbrook Museum of Art, the Oklahoma Contemporary Arts Center and the Individual Arts of Oklahoma. In 2024, Stone returned to creative works and launched the Clint Stone Creative Projects.

GALLERY III - The Trees & Me - SJ Barrymore
In a tribute to Will Rogers and his eponymous park in Oklahoma City, photographer SJ Barrymore presents The Trees and Me. A passionate photographer, SJ Barrymore began his journey with film photography on the streets of San Francisco. As time went on, photography became less of a priority to Barrymore, who was prompted to take a break from the medium due to personal experiences. In 2020, the purchase of a new camera prompted him to break a 15-year hiatus and re-immerse himself in the medium. For his first project since his break, Barrymore decided to capture the beauty and atmosphere of Will Rogers Park. Over six months, Barrymore captured images symbolizing how subtle beauty can be immersive and teach about the natural world around you.
