Many artists travel widely in search of new subjects, while others spend their entire artistic lives much closer to home. Andrew Wyeth did all of his work in two small areas of Maine and Pennsylvania, and Claude Monet spent the last four decades of his life painting the gardens right out his back door. Nature artist Barry Van Dusen has done his share of traveling, but he, too, continues to find abundant inspiration nearby – many of his paintings feature subjects observed out the windows of his studio in central Massachusetts. In this one-hour illustrated talk, Barry takes you along in his explorations of nature “Out the Studio Windows.” Barry is a renowned and award-winning wildlife artist whose work is regularly exhibited in New England, and his work has gained a wider audience through his participation in prestigious annual national exhibitions such as Birds in Art (Wausau, Wisconsin) and Art of the Animal Kingdom (Bennington, Vermont). In Europe, too, his art has found a receptive audience. He regularly exhibits with the Society of Wildlife Artists (London) and his work has been exhibited in France, Holland, Ireland and Scotland. This is an online-only presentation and is offered free of charge, but reservations are required to get the Zoom link. This program will not be recorded and there will be no recording available afterward.
