Vestiges, Hues, Fragments: The Lake Champlain Duck Hunting Series
Recent Monotypes by Bill Davidson

June 5  – August 1, 2009
Reception: Friday, June 5, 6-8pm

 
In Vestiges, Hues, Fragments: The Lake Champlain Duck Hunting Series, Vermont artist Bill Davidson documents his perception of the subtle variations of light, texture and atmospheric conditions accumulated over 40 years as an avid duck hunter on Lake Champlain. Using abstract watercolor monotypes, Davidson isolates the unique marks, colors, and forms which define each of the eleven distinct hunting locations on the lake, and viscerally capturing the experience of building blinds, setting decoys and retrieving killed birds in the light of day and darkness of pre-dawn.
