“Revel in the Wisdom” wins an Honorable Mention from Falmouth Art in the Autumn Juried Exhibition, on view September 5-29, 2025

I am so pleased not just to be accepted into this lovely show but to have earned an Honorable Mention for this painting inspired by the autumn light on our pond. I really do draw wisdom from the evolution of the lily pads as they make the way through the season, from bright spring green to cool teal to green gold before they sink to sleep through the winter.   Juror L. Michelle Law explains that “artworks chosen for honorable mention are each outstanding examples of work in their respective mediums and show clear thought and creative vision in their creation.”   She says this small watercolor and gouache painting has “playful color and shapes that create a wonderful rhythm.”   This is a special show for a lot of reasons, particularly because the Falmouth Garden Club is creating floral arrangements that draw on the colors of the works that appear in the show. The arranges will be on view at the opening reception on Friday, September 12, from 5-7pm. I’m looking forward to taking photos and posting them next week.
