Alined: Arranged in a straight line or brought into agreement or harmony. 

The latest exhibit at SIP Art Space brings together Steve Gibson and Vicki Walsh—two artists grounded in the language of drawing. While they share an affinity for illustration and a mutual use of gouache together with pen and ink, they bring distinctly individual voices to the show. 
 
Steve Gibson builds abstract compositions through flat color and precise line, creating open, suggestive environments where emotion and narrative linger beneath the surface. His work is structured yet spontaneous, offering viewers space for interpretation. 

Vicki Walsh, in contrast, works with obsessive line and subtle layers of gouache to create highly detailed, realistic images. Her work is intimate and meticulous, grounded in the emotional weight of close observation. 

In Alined, two artists move alongside one another—distinct in their vision, yet united in their devotion to mark-making and visual storytelling. Linework becomes both tool and subject—a shared element that connects two distinct practices.
