Watercolors of the Woods Exhibit at Conservation Center in Concord
Concord, NH, June 2, 2010—The exhibit “Watercolors of the Woods” by New Hampshire artist James Trask will be on display at the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests Conservation Center from June 16 through July 30.
A Keene native, Trask worked as a forester for most of his life. He began to develop his artistic ability in 1994, drawing inspiration from the woods. Done in opaque water color, Trask's intimate forest landscapes instill in the viewer an appreciation of the immediacy and importance of the forest. He passed away in 2008, dreaming that one day he would become a well-known artist.
The exhibit is open for viewing Monday thru Friday from 9 am to 5 pm in the Conservation Center Conference Room. As the Conference Room is used for meetings, please call (603)224-9945 before visiting to confirm that the room is open.
