Description
Somerville Manning Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition of paintings by Robert C. Jackson: It’s About Time, on view from March 1 – 30, 2024.Jackson is a realist painter who uses humor and nostalgia in his colorful still life paintings to offer commentary on human experiences.

The paintings are clever, delightful, and amusing and his tight compositions are brimming with potential movement.Robert C.
