This is a recent favorite and it’s included with a lot of beautiful work by NEWS members at the Plymouth Center for the Arts in Plymouth, MA.

Inspired by my 2025 visit to France, I feel like I finally captured a bit of the light and heat of those wonderful days at Clos Mirabel in the French Pyrenees.

Autumn is a great time to visit the Watercolor Society’s dedicated space at the Center because there’s so much to see there and in historic Plymouth.

If you haven’t seen Plymouth Rock yet, New Englanders are endlessly amused by the giant monument that protects the diminutive rock.

The New England Watercolor Society’s summer show is all about all things New England, so I’m especially pleased to be showing this painting of Wood Neck Beach in Falmouth, Massachusetts.

The Plymouth Center for the Arts has gallery devoted to the watercolor society and is a lovely place to visit anytime, but particularly now as we celebrate this historic 250th year of American Independence – and the weather is sublime.

The exhibit runs through September 2, 2026.

The Center is open Wednesday through Saturday from 10am – 4pm and Sundays 1pm – 4pm.

The Plymouth Center for the Arts has gallery space specifically designated for Watercolor Society works.

A sure sign that this interminable winter will end is the emergence of spring arts shows, and I’m happy to share that this bright watercolor + ink piece has been accepted to the New England Watercolor Society‘s Spring into Art exhibit.

The Plymouth Center for the Arts is a beautiful gallery space located in the heart of historic Plymouth, MA, just steps from Plymouth Rock and other early American history sites. Even on these raw spring days it’s a great day trip. The Center is home to the New England Watercolor Society, and always has a number of great exhibits on view.

The Center is open Wednesdays- Saturdays 10am – 4pm, and Sundays 1-4pm.

People of a certain age will see this title and laugh and then break into the Neil Sedaka song.

The New England Watercolor Society’s Watercolor Gone Wild exhibit at the Plymouth Center for the Arts celebrates the use of watercolor in art that is a little off the beaten path, which we know is right up my alley. This piece is a different take on one of my favorite subjects, lily pads. I’m pleased and honored that my work made it into this competitive show.

I got a sneak peek when I dropped off my piece yesterday and there’s some beautiful and innovative work in this show.

The Plymouth Center for the Arts is a beautiful gallery space located in the heart of historic Plymouth, MA, just steps from Plymouth Rock and other history sites. Even on a blustery November day, it was a great day trip for us when we dropped off the painting (which they hung while we were there – see above). Home of the New England Watercolor Society, the Center has many offerings and exhibits and is worth spending some time taking it all in.
