What I see becomes a sort of visual illumination, like a match struck unexpectedly in the dark, a gift, lighting my path into wonder -Virginia Woolf

A project of Inter Arts Matrix

Returning to Sandhills Park to draw with artist, Linda Duvall who is here with her project from August 28 to September 8, 2023. During my time in June the white pines over looking the hole beckoned me to draw them.
