NorthWind Fine Arts Presents

In Harmony

Month of September

A two-person show featuring the work of members Damon Hartman and Mary Woodcock Johnson.

“To paint is not to copy the object slavishly, it is to grasp a harmony among many relationships.”—Paul Cezanne

Mary Woodcock Johnson, Painting: “My recent landscape paintings are expressions of color, form, light and composition as filtered through my mind’s eye. They are a search for harmony as I observe local environments whether farms, flowers, birds or trees. As Cezanne said, they are not slavish representations of what I see but reflections of my view of the harmonies I choose to see in nature.”

Damon Hartman, Woodturning “For me, woodturning begins in the woods—finding and collecting Adirondack wood that has a unique character that I can work with to create a form or shape. Then I strive to bring it all together on the lathe to turn a vessel that honors each piece of wood. The wood is the art; I just turn it.”
