    Empty Docks - Knapps Narrows

    Marian Bickerstaff
    Work Description:
    It is a joy for me to try to capture the wonders of nature around us. I am particularly fascinated by the changing light and its effects on many subjects, especially on water.
    I love the beauty of sunsets, clouds and mists, and enjoy trying to capture the Master’s handiwork.

    Sharon Himes
    Work Description:
    Himes paints in watercolor and more recently, fluid acrylics, with an age old glazing technique, building up layers of delicate color one at a time and letting each layer dry before adding the next.
    The result is an atmospheric glow that evokes the serenity that the artist finds in the forest.
    Himes has been exploring with an artist’s eye for over 30 years. She collects natural materials in season and usually draws and paints them from life.
    The birds, small animals or butterflies who visit her studio often become subjects for paintings.

    Art is a journey; an expression of self. I invest a lot of emotion into my artwork, and hope that the viewer is moved by them.
    My artwork celebrates the beauty of nature whether it is in an amazing sunset or a delicate flower.
    I hope you enjoy the journey of my artwork... wherever it takes you.
