New Works by Lynne Adams

Jun 1, 2023

Lynne Adams’ latest artwork explores the profound spiritual connection between nature and the human experience, particularly focusing on the landscapes of Western Massachusetts. Through her unique technique of cold wax and oil painting, she delves into the transformative power of the natural world and its ability to heal and provide sanctuary.

In her paintings, Lynne aims to capture the essence of the spiritual energy that emanates from the landscapes she encounters. The use of cold wax and oil allows her to create rich and textured surfaces, enhancing her artwork’s tactile and sensory experience. With expressive brushwork and a harmonious color palette, she invites viewers to immerse themselves in the healing presence of nature.

New Works opens on June 6th and is on view Mon-Fri 10 AM – 6 PM, Thurs 10 AM – 8 PM, Sat 10 AM – 4 PM until July 1st.

Nature’s Resilience by Olwen O’Herlihy

Mar 29, 2023

May 4th – May 31st

Artist Statment:
Nature’s Resilience is simply the key to our very existence.  The earth with its rich and diverse bounty and our Oceans which may save us all in the end due to Climate Change are what sustain us.  I found this out as I was Learning my trade as an artist and have extended this search to the Oceans.   It seems each day we are feeling our equilibrium askew with a continuing barrage from outside sources that affect much more than we ever imagined. I am exploring the forests both on earth and below the oceans. It’s almost unreal in its intensity and disturbance. No matter who or where you are from, something new and awful has occurred to us all. My way of responding is to find a way to try and live my life to its fullest and appreciate how beautiful it can be by doing my art.  And- at the same time stay connected and try for change!  Time will tell where it all settles. Nature and what it brings to our daily lives is the ultimate healer.  These monotype, dry points, intaglio etchings ,  and a few watercolors will center on this experience and hopefully bring a sense of stillness and quietude to the viewer. That is my hope.

Opening reception Thursday, May 11th from 5 to 7 PM

PLEASE NOTE: walk-ins are welcome for the gallery. 

A Distant Horizon by Holly Tomlinson

Mar 17, 2023

April 4th – April 31st

Artist Statment:
In this series, I am exploring the freedom of a sketch in oils.  With an art background in realism, it has been a challenge to keep my line work and brushstrokes loose and fluid, much like a pencil sketch.  Seeing how a few lines can create a suggested landscape has been a very exciting process. Although these paintings were created individually, when they are brought together they begin a whole new dialogue.  The perspective shifts and changes as you move from one panel to the next, the landscapes vary, yet the horizon remains a constant in each.  An ever-present and distant horizon.

CANCELED: The opening reception for a Distant Horizon will no longer take place on Thursday, April 6th. Please check back for updates.
Thanks!
