Rosemary Washington returns to the Miller Library with new watercolor work featuring vegetables, fruits, and flowers. Since 2012, Rosemary has had four exhibits of her work in watercolors at the library, including the current one. Each showed her growth into new styles and directions. One constant, however, is finding inspiration in nature and the commonplace.
Rosemary considers herself a true amateur, one who pursues art for the love of it. There is no goal in mind, so she is free to evolve, experiment, and follow her urges. By focusing on regular, frequent practice (ideally picking up a paintbrush every day) and making small paintings, she is able to create a quantity of works that allow new directions to emerge in an unstudied, natural way. In the future, Rosemary hopes to further experiment with watercolor, gouache, and
collage. She expects joyful surprises.
The exhibit is open March 1-28 during Library
hours. All sales by cash or check only. Buyers can pick up their art on or after March 29. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the UW Miller Library Fund.
