Martha's is delighted to present Austin-based artist Payton McGowen's second solo exhibition with the gallery, titled Blip. The show will feature 8 new artworks, blurring the line between painting and drawing. 90 percent of the surface is colored pencil on canvas, with limited use of gouache, acrylic, and crayon.
Opening reception will be held at our Westside Market location on Friday, March 27, from 5:00-8:00 PM, and the show will run through April 25, 2026. Please reach out to Meredith (mer@marthas.gallery) or Ricky (ricky@marthas.gallery) with any inquiries or questions.
