Painting of geese on a reflective blue body of water, and trees.
This exhibit brings together techniques and images that Mary Lou has
explored during the past 50 years, working primarily with acrylic, acrylic
and collage, and watercolor painting. The variations of light on surfaces,
the forms, colors, textures, sounds and aromas found in cultivated gardens
and in the natural landscape have inspired her throughout her travels.
Places that she has experienced in Redding and Easton, Weir Farm in Wilton
and on to Stonington, Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont are seen in both
plein air watercolor and acrylic on canvas. Mary Lou attempts to
incorporate the feeling of being in a woodland, a meadow, along a brook or
pond, or near the sea-the uniqueness of that time and place and the elements there.

Upcoming Art Exhibits
Sandy Griesbach
What Do You See?
June 30-August 9
Community Room
Art Reception: Wednesday, July 2, 4:30-7:00pm


During the COVID-19 pandemic, photographer Sandy Griesbach of Danbury discovered a newfound opportunity to slow down and observe the intricate details hidden in nature. Through her camera lens, she was both surprised and delighted by the hidden beauty and dynamic energy that began to unfold before her eyes. This period of introspection led her to explore various ways of capturing the hidden patterns and reflections that were gradually revealing themselves.
Her curiosity guided her to the garden, where she embarked on a journey of discovering the essence of the images she was documenting. In this intimate exploration, Sandy found that occasionally, the very spirit or personality of a flower or tree would reveal itself, offering a glimpse into the profound connection between nature and the observer.
