137th Annual Exhibition

  • Where She Is Now oil on paper 8 x 20 The works in this series (Dressing Table Vignettes) are studies, created for conceptual development of larger works. They regard vanities as private, personal spaces where one may meditate upon memories and encounter a depth of emotions reflecting in the mirror about life, being female. Looking glasses are used in metaphor, for the contemplation of constructing oneself for the world – for pleasure, necessity, or perhaps protection. In my process, I deconstruct textiles and garments from my wardrobe to create surface assemblages as low-relief grounds for paintings. What emerges is a visual dialogue, evoking human presence, aimed at illuminating renewal and transformation allegorically contributing to the dialogue and conceptual expression. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Boy in Green oil on paper 24 x 18 This painting explores perception and the quiet ways it shapes how we experience reality. The boy is built from fragments of memory, reference, and distortion rather than direct observation, allowing him to function not as a specific person but a psychological presence. This work also draws on archetypal imagery and an interest in how internal frameworks, such as psychology and spirituality, structure our experience without our awareness. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Radiant Red oil on canvas 19 x 16 This warm Autumn red is a beautiful hue that I took much pleasure in working through the composition. The repetition of reds gives it unity and the reassurance of solidity. Like notes on a musical score—you expect certain tones to repeat. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Theo Makes the Right Decision mixed media: photo and pigmented beeswax combines on Kozo and wood panel 20 x 16 History comes to us incomplete, in fragments, half-remembered stories, and voices never fully heard. In response, I create fictional visual biographies that honor lives that exist at the edges of recorded history. Each portrait is an act of imaginative witnessing, making space for moments that might have been or should have been. Each of these mixed media works is composed of intricate layers of pigmented beeswax, photographs, and abstract drawings. The photographic elements are a fusion of reclaimed and reimagined vintage photographs, with my own photographs that I combine and repurpose to add narrative texture. This layered process mirrors how we access memory; peering through time with imperfect clarity, discovering the way identity is constructed, concealed, and recovered across generations. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Caged printmaking 13 x 15 When fear falls on the human spirit, it chains us to darkness. The only path forward is to see it for what it is. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Good Day Sunshine Acrylic on Primed Canvas 22 x 18 Organic shapes and the interplay of color and light inspire my work. After a 30 year span as a watercolor artist, I have discovered acrylic paint, and am loving it! Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Inside On acrylic on canvas with pencil, ink, collage, acrylic, clay on wood, board, paper 17.25 x 12 My fine art series explores her relationship with her body, how she feels it, lives in it, responds and embraces it, how she internalizes the outside and how it tries to define her. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Bloom photograph: hand-made platinum/palladium 11 x 14 In my art work, I capture the simple beauty in everyday life, the commonplace or ordinary scenes in the environment. These images offer us rare moments of solitude, time to slow down and observe the world around us, and to enjoy quiet beauty and serenity. reflection. I use water and light as beautiful threads that draw the eye in, providing an opportunity to examine nature. I use the platinum/palladium printing process to capture a softer, painterly effect, evoking late 19 th century idyllic landscapes and lending a poetic quality to the images. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Give and Take thread, watercolor paper, and foam board 15 x 24 My work draws on the rich histories of domestic customs and textile art, challenging the boundaries between fine art and craft, and celebrates embroidery as a powerful, expressive medium. Using color, geometry, and layered threads, I build compositions that invite close, intimate engagement. As light and perspective shift, the work subtly changes, encouraging moments of pause, reflection, and discovery. I focus on everyday thoughts, feelings, and experiences, and seek to create work that feels comforting and familiar. “Give and Take” came from noticing how often I try to show up for others, and how I am still learning to let others show up for me too. It’s about that quiet balance, wanting to give freely, but also realizing it’s okay to receive without feeling guilty. This piece holds that in-between space, where I am figuring out how to do both. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Fucking peachy...How are you? oil on panel 18 x 22 When I worked in tv, every day an editor would ask me, "How are you, today?". I would answer, "Fucking peachy...How are you?". My answer always made him happy. Hi, George. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Moods and Mists oil on belgian linen 31 x 31 This scene is an imagined seascape of drama and sensory immersion. I painted it after a walk on a December day when the clouds were steely grey, pulling apart to barely reveal a brilliant setting sun, but hiding the brilliance just a bit. The contrast of bright light fading into darkness struck a nerve, reminding me that light always triumphs over dark in the end. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Quiet Time watercolor 18 x 18 Captured moment of boys in time Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Wolf Moon Over the Boundary Waters ceramics: wood fired and soda fired stoneware 20 x 20 A response to Congress allowing a foreign country to commence copper nickel mining in the pristine, protected Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, this sculpture depicts a desolate moon hovering above forsaken wilderness. It is a protest piece. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • I Don't Want to Remember oil on linen canvas 20 x 16 I painted her from very personal place. She refuses to see because some memories are too much, and sometimes shutting the world out feels like the only way to stay whole. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Land of Harmony #4 oil pastel on archival rag paper 17 x 21 This is part of a series where I was experimenting with the joy of color and non-referential composition. For me it’s all about energy, rhythm, color, emotion, movement, rawness, fluidity, spontaneity and pure fun. The Land of Harmony series may evolve into larger paintings. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • You Will Outgrow Your Shoes sculpture: found objects 22 x 13 x 3.5 Relationship with Love (Family) Series...this piece was inspired by a song lyric: You will outgrow your shoes, but you will always be my baby. I think most parents think this way. I had the shoes, so as soon as I heard the lyric, I had my intention for this work. I have a daughter so this work was very personal for me and universal, thinking about all families. I used objects from different ages to create the narrative....diaper pin to engagement ring, skate key to car keys. The fan was given to me by a former student, and my daughter had a very similar one. So many stories, so many memories that we share. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Held oil on canvas 60 x 60 Held explores how experience is carried and remains present over time. A saturated field of red is built through layered gestures, scraped passages, and areas where the paint thins and breathes. Earlier marks are not erased but absorbed, remaining active within the surface. Near the upper center, a pale form emerges—held but not fixed—while vertical traces rise and dissolve beneath it. The structure is felt rather than defined. The painting holds a space between vulnerability and stability, where something might have disappeared, but didn’t. Instead of collapse, there is openness. Instead of fracture, there is presence. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • The Decoy assemblage 30.5 x 22.5 x 1.25 I am intrigued by negative space, in this case the remnant pieces left over from a chair shape I had cut out of a sheet of lauan. There is no preconceived idea formed as I start working with the remnants. The shapes are used as is, they are not altered or refined outside of some light sanding of the edges. The effort in composing these disparate shapes into a cohesive whole is an exploration of rhythm and spacial balance. It is a process that I find continually engaging and satisfying as the pieces begin to come together to tell a story I would not have envisioned. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Cornered photography 20 x 16 My photography portfolios deal with beauty that I find in simple places. I search for art in places often overlooked by people rushing by: street abstractions formed by the effects of traffic and the erosion of painted lines; art in the visible layers of torn papers restructured by random anonymous participants; changes from weathering; oxidized rusted surfaces creating patterns and vistas; reflections in puddles, ponds, or store windows; ice patterns; simple arrangements of flowers and fruit at markets. And, as ever, there is the straight image: looking up, down, and around to catch that perfect image, THAT second in time never to be repeated. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Reflective acrylic paints, patinated coppers in various colors, cotton fabrics, dupioni silk, nylon mesh, mulberry fiber paper 20 x 24 I found an old diary from a teenaged European trip. I was reminded how much in awe I was in Venice of the way a sunset was reflecting on the water around the islands and boats. I didn't have a camera at the time, so I made sketches with my notes. This mixed media artwork is based on my recollections of that view of the Venetian Lagoon. It's acrylic painting with abstract mixed materials collage. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Abstract XII high fire glazed ceramic 15 x 10 x 9 Series of unique organic shapes created on the wheel, manipulated and assembled together to create an intricate motion inspiration by nature. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Boy and His Dog Named Moose charcoal on arches paper 22.5 x 28.5 Portraiture is an opportunity to portray light and intriguing form, and explore varied emotive qualities. In portraying individuals at different ages and life stages I engage themes of temporal change, individual vulnerability and human mortality. I reflect moments of inquisitiveness, strength, calm or vulnerability; traces of self-protection and openness; or glimmers of hopefulness, pride and earnestness emerge. As I preserve a moment in the subject’s evolution, I acknowledge the tumultuous forces and inevitable unstoppable sea of change we ride in life. The child’s and his dog’s intent gaze, and the connection, felt in this moment between these friends, are the subjects here. Moose is no longer alive, but the friendship with “his animal brother”, as he called him, is still palpable. The difficult and satisfying challenge in my portraiture is to portray some unarmed truth and in so doing to suggest our complex humanity and shared experience. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Proteus bronze sculpture 12 x 14.25 x 15 Many cultures believean object, anumal or person gains additional attribute by changing forms. The octopus can change shapes or appearances. does shape-shifting ( meaning to change or move)has its origins in ancient myths and legens where gods, spirits and magical beings possesed this ability. In greek mythology, Proteus ,a sea god, possesed this ability. Certainly a positive trait today: to be able or capable of changing-hopefully moving into a positive direction. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • GoldLeaf acrylic on archival cradle board 24 x 24 I cleaned, dried and applied gold paint to one of a tree's organs (leaf) which acts as a primary food factory for a tree. Humans ought to regard leaves more precious than gold. Tree terpenes are aromatic compounds released by trees, particularly conifers, which offer significant health benefits to humans, including reduced stress, lower inflammation, and improved mood and are natural anti-inflammatories. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Woman Chained mixed media 12.5 x 9.5 Digital image, cut and torn pieces from prior art projects with waxed thread used to sew on a statement and torn magazine paper create the collage. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Where Social Memory Lands charcoal and acrylic on stretched canvas 24 x 24 In "Where Social Memory Lands" a piece from my Layered Gaze series, I investigate how collective imprints are stored and shared using figures and liminal portals to bridge personal narratives and communal experience. My process is an intuitive inquiry into the language of memory. Using charcoal and acrylic, the figures coalesce--sometimes through deliberate marks and other times by emerging from the canvas itself. These forms act as landing points for memories, representing the moments where our private stories meet a shared reality. Through this process, I acknowledge the power of these fleeting, narratives, inviting the viewer into a silent, collective history. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Back to the Sea archival pigment print on paper 24 x 18 I enjoy the discovery of interactions along the shoreline. There are endless possibilities as the tide changes, the weather turns, people come and go. There is freedom and fantasy as you get your toes in the sand and surf. I watched this young boy at play with this magical stick full of barnacles and at last in whatever story he had in mind he returned it respectfully to the sea. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Transmigration acrylic 36 x 60 In progress since 2015, transmigration meditates on death not as an ending, but as a threshold through which time, memory, and spirit continually pass. Transmigration explores grief and reverence, treating time as porous rather than linear, where past and future quietly coexist. I invites you to slow down, to listen for what remains after loss, and to consider passing as an intimate companion to life, shaping how we remember, transform, and endure. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Hot Flashes, 01 acrylic on cast iron pan 16 x 11 My current work is a documentary self-portrait as I go through pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding and postpartum. My sculptures, paintings and prints are a direct cry of motherhood pride and fragility. The work’s material properties: fragility, transparency, sturdiness, address the daily balance between vulnerability and stoicism. The work addresses the taboo topics of motherhood and challenges societal perceptions, advocating for the rights and lived experiences of mothers. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Sunspot for DG canvas, mirror, grout, acrylic paint, love 12 x 12 I work in light, reflected in mirror. I believe the energy from light has healing properties. I experience this healing in my process and hope you do as well. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Life and Death and the Inbetween oil on canvas 48 x 60 My work is informed by indian spiritual thought, mythology and lived experiences. My love for the many expressions of the natural world, such as, plants, animals, birds, appears throughout as symbolic imagery. This painting reflects on the quiet cycles of life- flowers blooming and wilting away, caterpillars becoming moths, moths drawn to light, and waves of thought rising and dissolving. An Introspection on themes of existence and transformation. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Tranquility oil on canvas 24 x 20 I painted this plein air surrounded by the peace of nature in a tranquil state at the start of spring Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Homesick photography: Digitally manipulated 21 x 17 Walking in the East Village, I was struck by the graffiti shouting out HOMESICK on the side of the building. The message can be interpreted in many ways...Longing for home, disappointment in seeing the neighborhood change, or on closer inspection... what is lost, as can be read in the partial message "the buildings we lose, are as important...." The strong statement, the blank white of where the building had been, along with the diagonals underscoring HOMESICK and the painterly weatherworn posters along the wall, come together to create an impactful visual image. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Crossing the Stream oil on canvas 20 x 17 This artist has established a reputation for her authoritative capture of rural landscapes and equine sporting events—foxhunting and wildlife in rich natural landscapes. Her passion and focus lies in capturing the emotionality and timelessness of these traditional subjects, rendered through her unique palette and compelling brushwork. She was a Signature Member and Vice President of the American Academy of Equine Art (now defunct). She is also a member of the Salmagundi Club and AIS (American Impressionist Society), and juries into exhibits with all of these organizations. She is collected nationally. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Vibrant Poppy Glow - Scotland photograph on wrapped canvas 24 x 24 While walking through a Scottish garden, I encountered this extraordinary poppy growing and knew it had to be photographed. In Lightroom, I isolated the flower, blurred and darkened the surrounding garden to pure black, allowing the color and architecture of the bloom to speak without distraction. The ruffled white petals spreading wide against a pure black background draw the eye inward to the magenta-green center — a surprise that rewards the viewer repeatedly. That unexpected burst of color and design at the heart of something so classically simple is what makes this image compelling to me. I photograph flowers the way the Dutch Golden Age masters painted them: as they are, not as we might wish them to be. The shadows falling across these petals are real. The raindrops are real. I do not correct nature's imperfections, because they are not imperfections — they are evidence that this flower lived. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Sunlit Reverie acrylic on illustration board 18 x 23 Sunlit Reverie features the Charles Engelhard Courtyard at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. It is one of my favorite spots to pause in after visiting some of the galleries. The courtyard is a skylit sculpture filled space that one can wander through or just sit in and take in the mise-en-scene. Sunlit Reverie is also an exploration of how light defines perceptions of a physical space and the objects in it.: The limitations and illusory aspect of perception has always intrigued me; specifically, the ambiguity of light and shadow, and how it determines how we see colors, values and forms. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Dreams Rising Photography/In-camera single exposure capture using ICM (Intentional Camera Movement) 18 x 24 Dreams Rising by NashMith, Photography I found the extraordinary by seeing the ordinary in a new way. A whole world of movement and color right outside my apartment window. Dreams Rising is the upward trajectories of our best aspirations. The transformation of small, delicate, uncertain potentials into beautiful realities. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Escape at Dawn ! acrylic with some metallic undertones on gallery wrapped canvas 48 x 48 In a world where we can find ourselves feeling trapped, helpless & bound to an existence we cannot control, we can still reach deep inside ourselves to muster an inner strength…. And find more power than we thought ever possible. And escape from chaos to rise above and soar into a new world…. a new dawn in our lives. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Circles Dance 2 sculpture: piano key parts, plexiglass, plywood, stain 25 x 10 x 10 CIRCLE DANCE 2 began taking form when a friend gave me a bagful of piano keys and parts. The varied shapes and elements led me to create a work that playfully celebrates its patterns and gentle rhythm. I added clear plexiglass rods to give the piece breathing room while contributing to its overall structure. The plywood base serves as a counterpoint to the verticality of the sculpture. The sea green color I chose adds to the work’s quiet flow. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • With Hope of Ending World Hunger mixed media 30 x 24 My Sculptural Painting, “In Hope of Ending World Hunger” was created with this sentiment in mind. My inspiration comes from working in food banks and donating food to those in need, as well as the attention this needy cause deserves. I combined 3- dimensional elements with my oil painted portrait to better bring this portrait with its humanitarian theme to life. Cloth and burlap, sculpted hands that reach out beyond the flat oil painted portrait, and an authentic hand carved bowl from Africa, compel viewers to consider and confront the daunting issue of World Hunger, as we look into mesmerizing eyes that represent 673-783 million people who still go hungry today. Perhaps the image of this piece will foster an appreciation for all we have and be a catalyst for donations of food and funding. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Summer Syncopation watercolor on paper 8 x 10 in. (framed size 9 x 11 in.) This painting holds summer’s rhythms, sun’s intentions, cool thoughts in shadowed souls, small units of mind running down a sidewalk diving into an infinite sea of consciousness, and fragmented memories where the parts equal the whole in a woven geometry of hand and mind that’s deceptively simple. Chromatic energy dances in syncopation while summer is here.   Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Wright Barn photography: digitally enhanced 16 x 20 This is a photograph that I took on a walk near my home. It was late in the day, and the setting sun made the side of a barn glow. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Standing Room Only sculpture: bronze/cast glass 10 x 14 x 8 This piece is the first in a series of sculptures that I plan to create around the theme of extinction. Each day another species either becomes extinct or it threatened by extinction due to human intervention or climate change. These pieces are aimed to call attention to shrinking biodiversity and to consider how each of us might bring about positive change. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Sweet Pea collage 16.5 x 16.5 I go out west to Oregon a lot to see my kids. I was there last May and saw sweet peas growing wild all over the hill behind my son’s house. I picked a bunch and took pictures and started calling my grandson, “Sweet Pea”. This painting is for him. He is a colorful character with lots of layers and textures, just like sweet peas. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Covid 19 Series Study 3 charcoal, ink, watercolor on paper 16 x 16 Covid 19 Series Study 3 by Linda McCune is a preliminary drawing for a larger work. It contemplates the point in the covid pandemic when humanity all over the world had cheated death and seemed to be trying to find courage even in uncertainty to emerge from their isolation. Some testimony from personal experiences of the physical and emotional barriers, as well as the confusion, and strange hope of this dark span when millions died seems imperative to commit to paper. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Berkshire Afternoon acrylic with pastel and graphite on canvas 32 x 27 The ideas of time and place are explored with nontraditional color palettes and a combination of forms and mark making. The work is somewhere between the expectations of realism and the freedom of abstract expressionism. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • The Grate Image sculpture relief 16.5 x 18 x 2 As a manhole artist, images of manhole covers and sewer covers appeared in my mind. This piece of art work is my self portrait. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Where New Light Rises oil and cold wax on paper 18 x 14 Thickly applied textures evoke seeds of change, while the bright orange symbolizes the burning away of what’s no longer needed. Inspired by the transition from the year of the snake (2025) to the year of the horse (2026), this artwork captures the energy of shedding the old to welcome new beginnings. Full of movement, depth, and a fluid, organic feel, it’s a celebration of transformation and fresh light rising—like the quiet turning of the seasons, where light gently reshapes the landscape within. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Color Clique acrylic on gallery edge wrapped canvas 30 x 24 The poetic and gestural beauty of flowers are a consistent source of inspiration. Their infinite color, variety and textures elicit an energetic, emotional shift. Paintbrush in hand-through abstraction, dynamic color and movement, I create a garden all my own. “Happiness is to hold flowers in both hands.” Japanese proverb Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.    
  • Wild Cyclamen acrylic and charcoal on canvas 23 x 19.5 With a background in the biological sciences and a lifelong love of nature, I seek natural forms and organic shapes in particular. Colour is a very important element of my pieces, and with strong brushstrokes, I aim to capture the energy of the wild places of the world, albeit in the Aruban desert or the tangled undergrowth of the city's parks. My abstract pieces begin life as intuitive markmaking, and with layers of colour they assume a botanical quality as they progress. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.
