The Swampscott Arts Association is hosting an exhibit of member artwork from March 13 until May 15, 2025. The show will be held at the Lynch / Van Otterloo YMCA, which is located at 40 Leggs Hill Road, Marblehead, MA 01945-3325.

The exhibit is hung on the first floor, to the left of the entry between the delightful cafe and the pool. Have a cuppa and enjoy the show!

My entry is an intricate Celtic-style drawing called Celtic Cockatoo and is matted and framed. Especially in the cold winter months when I spend more time inside, I enjoy taking the time to do this type of art. It takes a long time, but creating the complicated patterns with their jewel toned colors brightens a winter day by the fire.

The Swampscott Art Association is delighted to announce that our first exhibit “in a million years”, because of COVID, will be held at the Senior Center in Swampscott -March 4 – April 30! Members of the association will share their best works in a dazzling assortment of styles, mediums, and subjects.

My entry in the show is Snow Berry Cardinal, acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas, 8″ x 10″. Cardinals are such a joy to watch and listen to any time, but they are especially lovely against the snow on winter days. The design on this painting continues around the edges of the extra deep canvas. The painting is wired for hanging, and the depth of the canvas also allows it to stand on its own on a shelf.

The exhibit can be seen at the Swampscott Senior Center Gallery which is located in the back of Swampscott High School. The Opening Reception will be held Friday, March 4, 12 noon until 2:00 p.m.
