Watercolor Paintings
Ashland Art Works is excited to present the works of self-taught, Plein Air watercolor painter Shari Southard in our gallery spaces. Shari’s contemplative love of nature is a key element of her artistic process. Inspired by sharp lighting contrasts, Shari’s new visual technique in color pencil engages the eye to optically blend layers of color on black paper, generating a sense of texture and depth. A fun, lighthearted series entitled, The Dance of Light, the color pencil on black paper works will be featured all month in June.


Marydee Bombick

Marydee’s interest in clay began in her early teens when her Aunt taught her to paint on pre-formed pieces. After graduate school, she took a summer class in throwing pots and was hooked. When Marydee retired as a high school math teacher in 1998, she was able to devote more time to clay projects and set up a small studio in her basement. Her work continues to evolve as she learns more techniques and develops new and exciting glazes.
