The Loud Quiet

Sawyer Yards is proud to announce The Loud Quiet, an exhibition of landscape works by three Sawyer Yards artists: Kelly Best Bourgeois, Karen Lindeman, and Nena Marsh. These artists approach the subject of landscape differently, but all three create works that are capable of transporting us to another place. While static on the canvas, the scenes chosen for this exhibition resonate and vibrate with the energy and vitality of nature. Through choices in color, application, and composition, the artists hone in on the details of the moment, striking a balance between serenity and the smallness one experiences in the face of epic landscape.

Kelly Best Bourgeois is a retired physician who developed a profound love of nature growing up in Corpus Christi, TX and experiencing the ever changing scenery and wildlife along the Texas Gulf Coast.  Bourgeois’ subjects are informed by her life experiences, and her love and respect for nature, leading her to often work in plein air method – painting directly in the landscape. Bourgeois works out of Studio #116 at Sabine Street Studios.
