Works are available. Contact me at jamesmcnamaraart@aol.com Thank you to the Beachwood library and Margaret Reardon for bringing the visual arts to the community.
The works in the show span 2010-2012.The ink & wash drawings were inspired while on a trip to Stevens Point,Wisconsin .The influences of Paul Travis & Charles Burchfield, always there.These works are new discovery in the print medium for me after seeing a 1920 s show of Karumu artists at the Maltz Museum.The prints in the show inspired me to make my own wood block prints.Ive always loved prints though this is the first time making them.The series is called 'mystery forest'.The works are mainly imaginary and influenced by nature.This is the first time the prints have been exhibited.To add variety, I've included watercolors, and acrylics works.Hope you enjoy the show.
