SUMMARY:The Little Market presents "Visions\," a watercolor show
DESCRIPTION:The Little Market is pleased to present Visions\, a new two-person show featuring the expressive watercolor work of Beth Bale and William Schaefer. \nBeth Bale brings her deep love of nature to life in expressive watercolor. A self-taught artist and teacher\, Beth captures animals\, florals\, and landscapes with fluidity and experimentation. Her work reflects a playful and curious approach to the medium of watercolor\, rooted in the rhythms of her life on a 12-acre farm. \nWilliam Schaefer paints visual stories shaped by memory\, emotion\, and quiet reflection. Working in watercolor and mixed media\, his luminous compositions blend strong value contrast and rich color to evoke connection. Each painting invites the viewer to slow down and rediscover the emotional undertones of the everyday. \nTogether\, Schaefer and Bale explore the spaces where feeling\, nature\, and narrative meet. \nThe Little Market is an exciting new collaboration between the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts and the Hillsborough Real Estate Group\, providing exhibit space for local and emerging artists and handmade giftable items by NC crafters. Admission is free and all works are available for purchase.
