Bird Bath banter
Lucia Hackett
$150.00

Selected for Exhibition
Artist statement: I enjoy feeding the birds during the Winter months so in early Spring it is unusual to see baby Blue Birds at the feeder. This year we also had the privilege of enjoying a family of Baltimore Orioles. Well this day there was much discussion at the bird bath and the baby Blue Bird wanted to take a bath and the Oriole said no! It was over in a few seconds. Oriole got his drink and baby Blue Bird took her bath!

George Hancin

Selected for Exhibition
Artist statement: I am an observational painter, I paint from life. Most often I paint landscapes and could be called a Plein Air painter. I start each painting on location and I try to approach each one with a fresh and open point of view. Most of each painting is finished on the spot, but they are frequently reworked and adjusted in my studio. I try to make my paintings more than just a copy of a place but a narrative or documentary about a setting; creating a story and and a feeling about a place.
Specific medium: oil on board

Ria Hills
$550.00

Selected for Exhibition
Artist statement: I was born in The Netherlands, raised in New York, and presently paint in my home studio in Uxbridge, MA. In 2006 I set a goal to complete a painting a day making small works more affordable to collectors. As the body of work developed, a pattern began to emerge revealing mainly still-life subjects. Although my work is not limited to the still life genre, I have learned that still life subjects translate well into a small painting format. They challenge me to dig deeper into the details.

$2,000.00

Selected for Exhibition
Artist statement: My work is an expression of what I value: the intrinsic and intangible qualities of a rich and full life, whether found in nature or the people around us. My models are people I meet at random occasions in my day-to-day life. Sometimes I have to coax them into sitting for me. They often don’t understand why I want to paint them. But once the creative process begins, they see what I’m trying to achieve and enjoy the journey. This dialogue is so important for each painting. It helps the art

The Path, #1
James Hunt
$350.00

Selected for Exhibition
Artist statement: The banks of the Blackstone River are in places lined with forests of shift birch tree forests that thrive in the sandy soil. I've found myself captivated by one small such forest located in South Grafton, Massachusetts, just below Mill Village Park. The trees and forest themselves are captivating, but more so to me are the paths that lead throughout the forest. One could easily get lost even in such a small forest next to a river, except for those paths.
Specific medium: color infrared photo, inkjet print

Artist statement: I work as a traditional realist, exclusively in watercolor and, for the most part, pure watercolor. Pure watercolor refers to the process of achieving all colors and values with light washes and detail layers of watercolor on top of one another without the use of opaque paint or any white paint at all. All the whites you see are the white of the paper coming through.
