On the Trail with a Good Dog - Watercolors and mixed media constructions by Kristin Otwell

During the pandemic, Kristin spent many hours walking the trails around Mendocino with her dog Kia. The artist remarks, “I found great solace in the beauty of the woods and Kia’s delight at being outdoors was infectious.”  In the summer of 2022, when the strictures of the pandemic had lessened, a hiking trip with both a human friend and a dog friend in the Eastern Sierras brought new subject matter and inspiration.  “I fell in love with the beauty and enormity of granite” says the artist.

Kristin’s new work includes watercolors and mixed media constructions which reflect her time on the trail. Please join us at Partners Gallery on Saturday, October 14 from 5-7 for an opening reception. We are located at 45062 Ukiah Street in the historic Beacon Building.

The gallery is open Thursdays through Mondays 11am-5pm. www.partnersgallery.com
