"Visual Musings" - in the Main Gallery

Geraniums (oil)
Visual Musings - Cumberland Valley Reflections
Paintings by Mary Hickman
Library - Main Gallery

Mary Hickman paints and lives in Shippensburg, PA.  She works realistically, often painting on location (en plein-air) in our beautiful countryside.  Mary says, "I believe that the visual arts are a separate language that speaks to the human spirit.  A meaningful work of art can greatly enhance ones' day-to-day life.  Often, the viewer will see things particular to themself, things that the artist didn't consciously include.  Thus, the viewer contributes to the creative process."
