Looking deep into the trees
"The Watcher'' (mixed media), by Helen Lozoraitis, in the three-person show "Seeing Through the Trees,'' at Massachusetts Audubon's Moose Hill Wildlife Sanctuary, Sharon, Mass., through Feb. 5.
The gallery says that three exhibiting artists Art Donahue, Helen Lozoraitis and Lindsey Nygaard explore "the endless beauty of nature and the habitats within. Art Donahue brings technology and the aesthetics of photography together, showing the viewer his perspective on naturalistic landscapes. Helen Lozoraitis photographs and creates mixed media from the real world and fictional landscapes. Lindsey Nygaard's oil paintings reveal a simple yet stunning complex image of the natural world. 'Seeing Through the Trees' reveals the hidden beauty of nature that often goes unnoticed in the modern era. Each piece shows the viewer those elusive parts of the natural world; revealing what they might see if they looked deeper into the trees.
Sharon has many scenic trails because of the extensive conservation land within it. Trails include the Massapoag Trail, the Warner Trail, the Bay Circuit Trail (otherwise known as the Beaver Brook Trail), and the King Philip's Rock Trail. There are also some trails in Borderland State Park and in Moose Hill Wildlife Sanctuary.
