Miriam Wotiz to exhibit work at MPL
During the months of February, March and April, artist Miriam Wotiz will display her work at the Milton Public Library in the first floor gallery. Mrs. Wotiz is known for her spontaneous and strikingly luminous paintings. She works intuitively and with feeling, interpreting nature rather than imitating it. Her paintings capture the fleeting effects of light and color and allow the viewer to participate in a visual experience.
