A Sense of Place
A conversation between local beauty and multiple mediums
December 13, 2023 – January 7. 2024
Opening Reception:
Sunday, December 17, 2023 from 3:00 to 5:00pm
About the Artwork:
Our West Coast, the unique visual displays of ocean and mountain, our lives lived in the blues and greens that surround, the myriad of botanical and aquatic inspirations - all will be explored through the eyes of five diverse artists.
In joining together, we intend to foster a dialogue between this sense of place and our differing mediums: oil on canvas, watercolour on paper, and pottery. Having our own voices speaking through our work, the exhibition will be an ongoing discussion of colour, form, line, and technique - all uniquely communicating our interaction and celebration.
Exhibit Events:

About the Artists:
We are five women, from differing continents and backgrounds, deeply informed by our island home and the waters that surround it. Our studios range from backyard structures to sailboats,
but we are all inspired by what happens locally, outside of our creating space.
