Watermark Reception for Exhibiting Artist Gillian Bedford

Watermark Art Center will host a reception for exhibiting plein air artist Gillian Bedford on December 1 from 5 to 7pm. Bedford will speak at 6pm.

Bedford’s plein air paintings have an expressive quality while also abstract in nature. For this exhibit, “Lake Itasca:True Source of My Inspiration”, she challenged herself to paint with a limited palette built from 5 – 6 colors. Color is her inspiration.

She is an artist who has deftly described the loud and quiet passion of the lakes, trees, and bogs of northern Minnesota. She has developed her own style and original body of work.
There is no charge for this event. The exhibit will be on display from December 1 – February 24, 2024. Watermark galleries are free and open to the public Monday – Saturday from 10 to 5pm and located at 505 Bemidji Avenue N. in Bemidji, Minnesota, 218-444-7570.
