Artist Gigi Barrett’s dramatic paintings, often with luminous skies are on display this month at Darien Rowayton Bank at 1001 Post Road, and it’s hard to take your eyes off them. A horse gallops across a vast plain, mountains in the distance, a luminous sky above that might remind you of El Greco. More horses in another picture, with — if you’re watching carefully — clouds in the shape of horses above them. The Charles W. Morgan whaling ship. Large faces, partly obscured.
