ART ON VIEW Flat Planes of Saturated Color Patrick Dunfey at White River Gallery at BALE in South Royalton through September 30, 2017. Dunfey presents large paintings on paper, some measuring 60”x85”, created in 2017. This dynamic new work in flat planes of saturated color alters perspective, exposing water and wood in unusual relationships. Shredded trees along a rushing stream, a lone dock on a still lake, a cabin door with a thin stream of light. MORE

MORE	FROM VERMONT ART GUIDE #5 Bucolic with Elements of Modernity Susan Abbott’s bright, bold paintings eschew nostalgia while embracing romantic views of the land. When she paints bucolic Vermont, she is unafraid to include elements of modernity: a traffic light dangling in an intersection or a light post interrupting a lake view. Abbott is one of sixteen artists featured in the exhibition, “Connection: the Art of Coming Together”. MORE

FROM VERMONT ART GUIDE #5 The Topography of Culture "Most people that have been in a darkroom know that special moment when your image magically appears in a tray of liquid," said Linda Bryan. "I was instantly hooked and thirty years later I still have my own darkroom." When she isn't teaching photography, through workshops and at the college level, in both digital and darkroom techniques, Bryan is building engaging series of photographs. MORE	ART ON VIEW Water, Water Ruth Hamilton at Christine Price Gallery at Castleton University through September 29, 2017. "I think of my art as a celebration of nature and life. An offering sort of thing that is personal and, of course, once the work is completed, it is whatever the viewer makes of it, whatever he or she chooses to see," said Hamilton. "The other side of me is the goofy child. Art making in general is the greatest fun, but the oddball papier mache figures are completely boundary-less and playful." MORE

ART ON VIEW Arid Lands Jenny Green at Northeast Kingdom Artisans Guild in Saint Johnsbury through September 23, 2017. "The first was is seeing mountains in a new way. Mountains have drawn me since my earliest memory. At three, I recall being shoved and pulled up the straight side of Mt. Hor at Willoughby Lake," said Green. "In my teens, I hiked and rode the Sierras and throughout my adult life have sought and hung out in whatever mountains were available at home and in my travels." MORE	ART ON VIEW Birding by the Numbers Birds of Vermont Museum in Huntington through October 31, 2017. At the Birds of Vermont Museum, they like to say we are “where natural history meets art.” But what would ornithology be without math? What new facts and figures about feathered phenomena can we most appreciate? Inspired by these questions (and more), the museum sought works that might integrate that sense of number into art, bridging the real and imaginary, with birds silly and significant. MORE
