My husband has an art show, expressing his visions of peace amidst dreamy mountain tops or surrounded by lush bamboo. Many thanks to Parish Center for the Arts, in Westford, MA, for arranging this. We are thankful the “show” is online, ensuring everyone can enjoy art while staying safe. Thanks to Tom and Patty for their support and hard work in showcasing my husband’s art.
My friend Tamar was so gracious in letting me display some of my photos at her beautiful Gallery Stika in central MA. How sad we all were when she had to make the not-so-easy but practical decision to close down last December.

As cold air permeates New England, I think back to last summer. Getting inspired, with the blues of sky and sea, as well as pastel shades of shell. The jagged lines of shadow from broken shells also gives me some ideas.
Now you can peruse a growing online gallery, find out where these photographs are exhibiting in the metro-Boston area, as well as easily purchase prints, specially printed on bamboo washi, made in Japan. These papers were made with digital prints in mind. The results are a clean image, on a non-glossy service, which preserves a “handmade” look yet retaining high quality printmaking.

While checking out the herring run, (you can read more about the details here), we saw these beautiful birds and other creatures. It’s amazing how you can catch quiet moments and simple, inspiring moments in nature, with these birds, fish, and reptiles carrying on their migrations, feedings, and natural life cycles, not too far from a bustling city like Boston. I’m new to capturing flying and swimming friends. It’s quite challenging. I took a few liberties with some blurred moments, trying to create an abstract feel. Maybe I’m not up for the wildlife challenge-yet! I will be posting some more soon on my revamped Instagram, @loweaperture. More news about that soon.
