SUMMARY:Art: Thin Veils and Fluid Borders
DESCRIPTION:By juxtaposing the fluid transparency of watercolor\, the rich\, worked texture of oil\, and the spectral light of photography\, this show challenges the viewer to move beyond the literal. “Thin Veils and Fluid Borders” invites us to look past the geography of the land and instead feel its pulse. Together\, these works create a collective meditation on how the environment shapes our internal mood\, presenting the landscape as a living\, breathing entity that shifts with the light and the mind’s eye. As you move through the space\, you’ll see a striking conversation unfold between three distinct media: the fluid\, weightless transparency of Nanci Yermakoff’s watercolors; the thick\, deeply layered textures of Jamie Lauler’s oil paintings; and the spectral light of Brian Billadeau’s photography. \n  \nThis runs daily 10/3/26 thru November 23\, 2026. \n  \nVisit the website to book your gate admission. \nLike this:Like Loading…
