The two watercolors in this show are part of a 100-day project I began in 2022. For my project, I created small abstract watercolors on the theme of “stones and water,” inspired by my frequent walks along trails at Amethyst Brook and Mill River in Amherst. As with my embroidery work, the “stones and water” watercolors were improvisational, developed in layers day by day.
Sawmill River Arts, at 440 Greenfield Road in Montague, MA, is part of the Montague Bookmill complex, a former mill overlooking the Sawmill River housing the gallery, a used bookstore, cafe, record store, and restaurant. The show continues through February 27; gallery hours are Thursday-Monday, 11 am-5 pm.
