My favorite artist capturing the spirit of the bay.

I love the Chesapeake Bay. I miss living near it, but I love our mountains as well. Wish I could have both, maybe someday, if not the bay, then another water's edge. It is where the land and the water meet, that I love best. The shores, marshes, bogs, and streams. I think we, human beings, are like that. A synthesis of water and organic material, active, swampy, and full of life.

Marcy Dunn Ramsey is an artist who captures this.

I have only experienced her work in person a couple of times. Just tonight, Maryland Public Television ran their Art Works This Week special with her segment. The third time I have seen it and love it every time. Mrs. Ramsey captures the edge, the abstract, where water, light, plants, and shore interact to become these remarkable vignettes of pattern. I thought I would share her with all of you. Here is one image, from one of the galleries that carries her work.
