The Places They Live – David Witbeck and his Fishermen
Friendship Sunrise, found at The Gallery, is that skinny little painting he is referring to. With the reflection of the morning sun turning the surface of the water the brilliant yellow, it was the beginning of something more.
Getting to Know Artist, Bethany Harper Williams
Williams often has figures in her paintings. “I am trying to capture a moment in time.
