“Nature is My Muse” opens today! It is a collection of Phyllis Northup’s watercolors inspired by nature. It is arranged by seasons; here are six of the intimate landscapes from the summer section. Phyllis shares this…..

“ I love to paint these zoomed in looks at the many beautiful things in nature that are all around us but seldom noticed. I hope my paintings will encourage you to take a closer look when you are outside!”
