This very special exhibit by artist Gwen Rhea Cowden features nearly 40 works created over a lifetime of artmaking, ranging from intimate figure studies and quiet still lifes to the active dynamism and gesture of line drawings and the layered bursts of color, shape and texture contained in wild garden scenes. Transformed through the artist’s selective vision, each image evokes the little mysteries and moments of awe in the world around us, if only we take the time to witness them.
On view from 15 January – 31 July 2023 by appointment.
