“ON THE EDGE OF LIGHT”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two painters and a photographer explore the interplay of light and color through three distinct artistic styles: expressive fluid watercolor, vibrant abstract painting, and evocative pinhole photography.<\/p>\n

Hoeft, Welch, and Rudman-Young each create art that communes with nature in their own distinct way, producing images inspired by light bending around the horizon at sunrise and sunset, or during storm-filled skies.<\/p>\n

Join us to experience these unique interpretations of the immense, breathtaking beauty of Martha\u2019s Vineyard.<\/p>\n

Meet the Artists: Reception and Artist Talk<\/strong>
Saturday July 11th<\/strong>
11:30-am-2pm<\/strong>
West Tisbury Library, Community Room<\/strong>
Light refreshments served<\/strong><\/p>\n

Artist bios:<\/p>\n

Lynn Hoeft<\/strong>
Master watercolorist Lynn Hoeft captivates us with her newly liberated, expressive style. Her watercolors dance and play across the page, much like light shimmering along the horizon at sunset.<\/p>\n

David Welch<\/strong>
David Welch, an accomplished Vineyard-based photographer, creates ephemeral images using pinhole camera techniques and extended exposure times. By bending light and expanding the horizon, he transforms familiar landscapes into dreamlike visions that seem to exist between reality and memory. His work carries a contemplative, almost spiritual quality, inviting viewers to experience the world through a lens of wonder, stillness, and transcendence.<\/p>\n

Tachina Rudman-Young<\/strong>
Finally, San Francisco\u2013based painter Tachina Rudman-Young\u2019s large vibrant works reveal in the beauty of color and light, creating joyful abstractions inspired by the shifting interplay of sea, sky, and atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Her paintings evoke the fleeting moments when dusk transforms the skyscape into something luminous and alive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
