Key West Colors: The Art of Ray Rolston Exhibition Opening

Key West Art & Historical Society welcomes the public to a special reception on May 30 from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. to celebrate the work of celebrated Key West artist Ray Rolston.
Key West comes alive through Ray Rolston's (1947-2019) paintings and prints which capture the vibrant colors of the islands and the surrounding coral reef. Inspired by the extraordinary shades of the sunsets, historic landmarks, classic conch houses, beaches and the lush sea life, Ray brings you the tropical warmth and sunshine of the Florida Keys through his vast catalogue of artwork.
Ray was a resident artist of the fabulous Sunset Celebration at Mallory Pier until his untimely passing in April 2019. A naturalist, his work reflected his love for the beautiful landscape of the Islands and the surrounding ocean with depictions of the colorful sea life that inhabit the local waters.
