Art exhibit: Ethereal Flowers Part 2
Water lilies are deeply connected to the earth and to the water that is the medium of their growth. The murky depths are hidden beneath the reflective water, graced by the simple expression of peace and beauty that is the blossom. This tension between light and dark is the theme I am exploring in these works—Robert Burns. July 2 – 31.
