Mary Ann
Bridgman’s watercolor show & sale, “Waterscapes,” is featured for the month of
April at Art Central Gallery. A waterscape is a landscape scene with a
prominent water feature included.
The artist
says, “Living in the South Carolina LowCountry, we are blessed to have many
natural wonders available to us. A lot of these include water.” Mary Ann
learned at a young age that she absolutely loves being near water. Whether it
is ocean, river, pond or waterfall, it gives her great pleasure.
What Mary Ann
knows instinctively, science supports with data: viewing water provides many
benefits. Researchers have determined that being near water has definite
calming effects on people. Watching ocean waves is inspiring and lowers stress
levels. Even looking at paintings of water scenes can provide these benefits.
Seek out some
calming benefits of water for yourself! Mary Ann Bridgman’s exhibit will be
available at Art Central Gallery through the end of April, with a reception
honoring the artist on Third Thursday, April 18, 2019, 5pm-8pm. For more
