The Water’s Edge Artists will once again be presenting a plein air artists exhibition, The Art of Preservation, at the Rahr-West Art Museum. These beautiful paintings are for sale, with proceeds benefiting the Rahr-West Art Museum and local environmental and historic preservation stewardship organizations. Meet the artists at an opening reception on Friday, October 9, 2015 from 5 -7 pm.
Water’s Edge Artists – Painters for Preservation – is an alliance of plein air artists dedicated to artistically recording historic, endangered or threatened places.
The Water’s Edge Artists meet monthly to creatively capture both celebrated and humble environmental or historically significant treasures. The group engages with one another and the public, both as individuals and as a whole, through collaboration with and financial support of local environmental and historic preservation stewardship organizations. Through these joint efforts, WEA endeavors to stimulate awareness of the need to protect and celebrate our unique, precious and essential natural resources and historic places.
Artists participating in this years’ exhibit are:
Mary Anderson, Sally Berner, Marina Beyer, Phyllis Brillowski, Pamela Clausen, Karen DeNoto, Charles & Kathleen Eaton, Evie Grasse, Keary Kautzer, Kitty Klich, Lora Lynds, Ken Marsden, Ruth Meyer, Judy Parins, Dan Rizzi, Russell Schwindt, Madonna Siles, Betsy Spry, Sherri Thomas, Cynthia Tumpach and Phyllis Verhyen
