Painted Ladies Marine Animal Art Show

Artwork for Marine Animals! The Painted Ladies are a group of independent watercolor artists who meet at the Jonathan Bourne Public Library. They hold several art shows and sales and charitable events throughout the year. Recently, they decided to help marine animals by donating artwork to the National Marine Life Center! Hanging the artwork. Eight artists donated a total of 20 original, framed pieces of art each with a marine animal or coastal theme. The artwork is available through NMLC’s Marine Animal Discovery Center and Gift Shop for $50 each. The Discovery Center is open 10 am to 5 pm through Labor Day. Art is available on a first-come, first-served basis. The Painted Ladies artists have works in professional buildings, government offices and private homes. Original works, prints & note cards have been sold in stores, restaurants and galleries. Murals in public buildings and restaurants have also been commissioned. While the group is mainly watercolor, many of the artists are accomplished in other mediums as well. Whether the artist has been painting a short time, or many years, each has her own unique palette, talent and personal style.
