Solo show in Munroe Gallery. See library website for hours: concordlibrary.orgReception: Sunday, April 12, 2-4 PM
Immerse yourself in the beauty of local flowers as we await their blooming in later spring and summer.
Most of the paintings in this show are based on photographs taken on walks throughout Concord, including at Great Meadows, the Buttrick Estate, Concord Community Gardens, the “wisteria house” across the street from the Main Library, and even the Keyes Road municipal parking lot.
Many of the works were created in 2024 for Flora(l) Portals, my solo show in the skylit atrium of the Morse Institute Library in Natick, MA. Because the pieces were hung from balcony railings and viewed from a distance, I used canvases ranging from 3 to 6 feet in height—hence the name of that show, as some of the paintings are almost the size of doors.
