Join The Friends of Walden Pond at the Walden Pond State Reservation Visitor Center on June 15 for an artist reception celebrating Terry Boutelle and her work being exhibited.
A resident of Boston, Terry Boutelle was born in rural Massachusetts, and spent her childhood exploring the surrounding woods and pastures. She studied psychology, philosophy, theology, and art history at Boston College in the 70s and later received her MFA at MassArt’s low residency program at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown. Her work is in collections throughout the U.S.
“Trees and forest imagery prevail in these paintings. I use a range of materials, from acrylic to mixed media, to celebrate the forest as it exists with minimal human presence. I aim to draw the viewer into the picture to imagine being alone in the forest, experiencing the environment, the light, and the silence.”
