In a show entitled "Years of Seasons," watercolor artist Linda Reynolds explores visual meditation through images of transient moments in nature. Intrigued by clouds, water, sky, layers of land, trees and mountains, all subjects that are “momentary,” “shifting,” and “glimpsed,” according to the artist - Reynolds finds daily inspiration in the way light affects these subjects. As these moments shift with the time of day, time of year, and with one’s perception, Reynolds chooses watercolors as the best medium with which to capture this immediacy and changeability.
Educated at the Rhode Island School of Design, Reynolds uses, as part of her technique, the transparent quality that can be achieved with watercolors. “Paper, paint, brushes, and light conspire with my hand, eyes, and memory to create. Painting is a way of slowing down and celebrating life reverently, even though watercolor painting itself goes quickly, it requires forethought, deliberation, and can’t easily be corrected.”
There will be a reception for the artist on Sunday afternoon, March 20, 2016, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. Please come and visit with her. Visitors are welcome during gallery hours, on weekdays from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00. Other days and times are welcome by appointment. The WalkOver Gallery is located at 15 Main Street in Bristol.
