More Driftless Wonders Part 2 at Myrick Park Center Gallery

 So please to announce that I was invited to continue my exhibit of Driftless Wonders through May at the Myrick Park Center.

Below are the paintings on display from February to March. Featuring a few of my favorite places that make living in the Driftless Region special. From downtown La Crosse, Riverside Park along the Mississippi River and the spectacular International Gardens to our very own downhill skiing with Mount La Crosse. Plus a look back at Myrick Park duck pond remnants.

For April thru May you see a selection of my collection of paintings of the Trempealeau Wildlife Refuge featuring grasses. The full show will be displayed at Elmaro Vineyard and Winery in the Crush Pad during June.

A reception is scheduled for Wednesday May 3, 6-8pm for the last month of my display.

Artists Comments– Colleen Shore 

While attending UW-La Crosse for Art, I began to learn what makes the Driftless area so special.  The La Crosse River Marsh was my first exposure to the wonders of the area. As a student, the trails were my own backyard to escape from my studies and discover the natural  world around me.

My connection to the area runs long and wide like the Mississippi. In my retirement in Onalaska, I’m creating art inspired by my surroundings  in order to connect and engage others to embrace the extraordinary.

A portion of the Myrick Park Center Gallery  sales will be donated to the Friends of the La Crosse River Marsh and WisCorps. My thanks to those who are working at conserving our natural resources.

 

Paintings inspired by the La Crosse River Marsh are now on display at Turtle Stack Brewery, 125 2nd st., La Crosse for February thru March 2023.
