Shelter: The Process of Creating, an exhibit of work by N. Cameron Watson at the Cape Cod Museum of Art June 21 through July 27, 2008.
Gallery Talks & Demonstration: Sunday, June 29 at 12:30pm & Thursday, July 24 at 11am. At a certain point, the piece simply takes over. It acquires a life of its own, quite apart from me, and all I can do is listen, look, and follow. -N. Cameron Watson N. Cameron Watson is a painter, author, and award-winning children's book author and illustrator. In this CCMA exhibition, she will display works that show the process she uses to create three separate works in a variety of media from one idea -- Shelter. In these works, the artist shows her fascination with the juxtaposition of human dwellings in the natural landscape. Each painting will be represented by a watercolor sketch, a full-scale painting in oil, and a brilliantly colored abstract collage created from the palette sheet she used to create the oil painting. Watson's early artistic training came largely from her parents. Her father is a painter, illustrator and author. Her mother was a poet and children's book author. Ernest Watson, her grandfather, was the founder and editor of American Artist magazine and co-founder of Watson-Guptill Publications. She studied at Yale College, held an apprenticeship in Germany with artist and master marionette maker Fritz Herbert Bross. Her work is in numerous private collections. Watson grew up in Putney, Vermont and Truro, Cape Cod, where she now has her home and studio. The show was curated by Michael Giaquinto, CCMA Curator. |
