gorgeous painting “Old Man and the Sea.”

And it what may be a shock to my constant readers, I agree 1000% with the choice. Oaxaca is not only an enviably talented painter, but also possesses that rare gift of being able to interpret and then deliver visual imagery culled from practically any subject or idea; imagery that is memorable and almost always standing apart (in aa good way) from the rest of the field. This gifted artist is one of the best in our region.

Who else stood out from the exhibition?

Gloria Spellman’s stunning minimalist photograph (The Cloud and Tree) caught a moment when Mother Nature showcased its/her own artistic talents; it’s a spectacular photo!

The oil painting titled “The Ferry Back from Monterosso” by Allison O’Shea, although quizzically stretching the definitions of what is a landscape, is nonetheless a gorgeous painting! Keep an eye on this new (new to me anyway) artist.

Sheila Flanders’ watercolor of National Harbor, Andrea Cybyk’s beautiful red painting titled “The Tide Washes Away”, and Ray Goodrow’s “Saturday Morning Trucks” also stood out in this outstanding exhibition.

Finally, Jackie Saunders, who recently passed away, reminded us via her simple and powerful entry (My Iris Garden) why she will always be remembered as a master watercolorist; master of the most difficult of all media – her breath-taking skills spanned all subjects, but flowers reached a new level of beauty in her talented hands. Her brushes weep in her studio, and her Irises weep in her garden – you will be missed Jackie.
