Exhibition
Climenhaga Building, Glass Gallery: Oct. 2–Nov. 15
Justin (Luke) Speers graduated from the Messiah College Studio Art program in 2012. Since graduating, he has worked as a Graphic Designer for Fox Chapel Publishing and Terrain, Anthropologie’s home and gardens brand.

Whether the subjects are small or grand, his painting process is focused on composing a moment that isolates the viewer to sense the subject's story.
