A Message from Renee Phillips, the Curator
* It is a huge honor and pleasure to present the art of more than 70 artists in this exhibition. I have curated numerous exhibitions on the theme of Nature throughout NYC and on our two websites. The purpose of this annual exhibition is to present inspirational, superior works of art in different styles and mediums by artists from around the world — from representational art to abstract expressions. The art conveys the many beautiful physical aspects of our natural environment as well as nature’s emotive, symbolic, and healing qualities.
* This popular exhibition builds relationships for the artists with art buyers, galleries, and other individuals, organizations and businesses that are interested in nature-inspired works of art. It also raise awareness about our responsibility to celebrate, respect and protect our natural environment.
