Duo Exhibit of Vermont Watercolors:
\nAmanda Amend & Susan Bull Riley
\nApril 20-May 28, 2017<\/h2>\n

“Duo Exhibit of Vermont Watercolors” by Vermont artists Amanda Amend and Susan Bull Riley runs through Open Studio Weekend, May 27 and 28.<\/p>\n

Susan Bull Riley’s primary muse is Vermont\u2019s natural world (image above). The work reflects her \u201clove of botanical watercolor, my bottomless affection for birds, and a need to release via art, the intensity of my affection for the landscapes of my native state.\u201d She has collaborated with a number of institutions that seek to protect the natural world such as The New York Museum, The National Science Foundation, The Vermont Community Foundation, the American Chestnut Foundation, Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology, and many local land trusts. She also has several paintings hanging in the Vermont State House.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Amanda Amend (image above) calls her paintings “contemplations”: \u201ccontemplations on the textures, colors, forms and sensory experiences of the world around me and on the thoughts that they inspire.\u201d She is a master at \u201clost and found edges\u201d, the exploration of the blending of edges between image and reflection. She says, \u201dWatercolor is the perfect medium to explore the morphing of form\u201d. Amanda has participated in exhibitions around the state, is a signature member of the Vermont Watercolor Society and was recently featured in the Vermont Arts Council Spotlight Gallery in 2016.<\/p>\n
