Open Studios, Studio at the Mill

Elizabeth Bauman…Conversations…
Thursday night we went up to Mary Lou Zeek Gallery 2 to see Liz Bauman’s new paintings. The space is wonderful and though by appointment only, is one worth keeping your eye on. Elizabeth has been working hard the last few years painting, and expanding her range of narrative and media. This summer she worked […]
