W. Gary Smith
Paintings inspired by Gary's adventures in garden design, including Winterthur's Enchanted Woods and Peirce's Woods at Longwood.
For his April 2016 solo show, Gary created a whole new world of colorful gardens, fantastical creatures, and abstracted tropical leaves.
“These fantasies are hybridized from images of plants, sacred symbols, and mythology across cultures and throughout human history. Overall, their meaning is a mystery.”
