Virtual Exhibition
Water Dance
My exhibition, Water Dance, was scheduled to run from March 2 – April 30 at Sacandaga Valley Arts Network’s gallery in Northville, NY. However, it ended after only two weeks due to the Covid-19 pandemic – just prior to when the Meet the Artist Reception would have taken place. Preparing for this 26-piece exhibition was a lot of work, and it was disappointing that it remained largely unseen. Solution? Put it online.
So welcome to my virtual Water Dance exhibition! All works are digital photographs printed on professional, archival papers in limited editions of 25. I painted some of the frames by hand with some lovely, metallic catch-lights. All pieces are for sale. If you are interested in purchasing any, please email me. I hope you will enjoy viewing this virtual exhibition.
Artist Statement
When I’m in nature, certain images stop me in my tracks, and I might not know why I’m drawn to them but sense they are part of a greater story or blueprint that connects us. Held the right way, nature is a mirror that reflects our deeper nature. Cycling between existing as an individual and part of a collective, water is reflective, flowing, interconnecting, transforming. Steam fog rising from a distant river might be composed of teardrops we once cried. Water is an integral part of each and every one of us that transcends all boundaries and borders.
Here are the “images only” from this exhibition:

It was just a regular paddle up the river to my usual turnaround spot and back. Occasionally, I'd pause to be still on the calm water and take in the symphony of the birds without the steady rhythm of paddling in the foreground. Before paddling back across the river...
