Carol Westcott

Natural Elements

October 31, 2026 to January 7, 2027
Opening Reception: Sunday, November 15, 12:30 - 2:00 pm

In her evocative new exhibition, Natural Elements, contemporary artist Carol Westcott presents a collection of acrylic and mixed-media paintings that capture the raw vitality of our local landscapes, hidden waterways, and diverse terrains. Westcott trains her focus on those overlooked pockets of our surroundings, we routinely bypass in our daily haste. She invites viewers to pause, recalibrate, and deeply connect with the tranquil splendour of the world around us.
