SUMMARY:Backyard and Beyond in Watercolor Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Backyard and Beyond in Watercolor Exhibit by Elaine Packard: May 6-July 2 at the McLane Center in Concord \nArt exhibit viewing access may be restricted during private event rentals. Calling ahead to confirm is recommended. \n  \nExhibit Description: Backyard birds\, flowers\, insects\, and animals have been the inspiration for my watercolor journey. While I am fairly new to this medium\, I don’t need to look very far for subject matter! Waterfowl and owls are favorites of mine as well\, with their varied colors and textures. \nI also enjoy the beauty of New England and like to take pictures of landscapes\, mountains\, lakes\, and local landmarks to use as reference photos. A late summer (first-time) trip to the top of Mt. Washington last year via the Cog Railway was truly stunning and I plan to create a few more paintings with the incredible clouds\, and distant mountain ranges. \nThank you for supporting the NH Audubon Society and I hope you enjoy my paintings and get a sense of the beautiful part of the country we live in! \nExamples of Elaine’s art. (Click to enlarge.)\nBio: From a young age\, I found happiness in quiet little things; flowers\, birds\, animals and scenery and I have integrated them into my artwork. I took many art classes in my high school years and received an Art Scholarship to Rivier College (which wasn’t utilized). Later in life\, time constraints of a full-time career and raising a family meant something needed to take the back seat. Life changes in recent years have allowed me the time to return to painting\, which I am enjoying immensely! \nI believe that continuous learning and being curious helps keep you young and I am currently discovering the beautiful subtleties and technical aspects of watercolor painting. I enjoy this medium very much\, although I must admit; there have been some struggles along the way. \nI tend to work towards realism\, studying the little details of my subjects\, moss on a tree branch or the anatomy of a birds’ wings. While birds and animals are some of my favorite subjects\, seascapes and landscapes are a good challenge and learning opportunity.\nOne of my goals was achieved last year; to show my work in a gallery. This was an accomplishment for me personally. The growth from that experience will remain with me for a long time. Meeting art enthusiasts\, collectors\, and other artists is something I enjoyed and am eager to continue. \nMy hope is that you find a sense of peace and calmness in my artwork and allow your mind to slow down\, notice the small things and enjoy nature\, because that is what I feel when I am creating.

SUMMARY:Newfound Region Photography Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Newfound Region Photography Exhibit by Dave LaBar: May 2-June 20 at the Massabesic Center in Auburn  \nArt exhibit viewing access may be restricted during private event rentals. Calling ahead to confirm is recommended. \n  \nExhibit Description: Dave’s exhibit showcases the natural beauty of the Newfound Lake area and what it has to offer. The northern shore of Newfound Lake is home to NH Audubon’s Paradise Point Nature Center. Dave enjoys this wonderful resource next to his home\, often hiking trails to explore the shoreline and finding inspired scenes to photograph. Dave’s mission is to share the beauty of the lake and bring awareness to the birds and wildlife that call Newfound Lake home\, as he does. He hopes that viewing his photographs will inspire you to see in person what he sees through his lens every day. \nAs a bigger enticement for visiting the Newfound Lake region\, kayak and canoe rentals are available at Paradise Point for those who want to paddle out onto the lake and experience the pristine beauty that is Newfound Lake! Consider attending a summer science talk – NH Audubon’s Newfound Nature Series is held in partnership with Newfound Lake Region Association\, whose Grey Rocks Conservation Area also provides photographic inspiration for Dave’s photography. \nExamples of Dave’s art. (Click to enlarge.)\nBio: Dave\, owner of Dave Labar Photography\, is a New Hampshire based photographer who calls Hebron\, on the north end of Newfound Lake\, home. Newfound Lake is conveniently located in the northern part of the Lakes region and southern part of the White Mountains Region to bring you the best of both worlds. \nDave also travels to the coast for photos of the seacoast and occasionally ventures out on the ocean for photos from the sea. \n  \n30% of the proceeds from this exhibit will benefit New Hampshire Audubon.
