• In Town — Los Angeles and environs

Come and enjoy a talk with the artist!

bG Gallery is proud to present a solo exhibition by Los Angeles–based painter Gay Summer Rick, Stratus, on view from September 25 through October 26, 2025.

The series takes its title from the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) definition of “Stratus” clouds: broad, layered, diffuse forms that blanket the sky with soft cover. Each painting carries this sense of enveloping presence—an embrace of light, fog, and color that reveals the resilience and wonder embedded in Southern California’s shifting skies.

Rick’s work invites viewers to pause, breathe, and embrace the subtle transformations in the air around us.
