I was pretty taken aback with Olivia Schreiner’s paintings when i showed up for the Midwestern Appropriation opening on Sunday. Without delving too far into it, I was initially taken by the use of the neon colors in a seemingly “classy way.” There was nothing stark about the paintings leaving them in a comfortable, approachable state. Even in their neonness, None of the paintings were screaming “LOOK AT ME.” A statement one can rarely make.
