Boulder City Art Guild October Featured Exhibit by Ann Boulais:  Expressions in Wood

Ann Boulais is a nature photographer, especially focusing on the landscapes of our National Parks and Monuments. She was working in the Tourism Industry, where she found an abundance of landscape subjects but when Covid-19 struck, travel & tourism shut down.  Ann was grounded-- unable to carry out tours and and her photography. She shifted and found new creative pursuits  "I started to become involved in graphic arts and sublimation, discovering that it was another very fun outlet for creativity."   Sublimation is a process that allows Ann to use her photographed images to enliven

functional objects.  These are what will be featured in this exhibit, from small gift items such as earrings to larger pieces like indavidually designed coffee cup gift sets and wall art.  With 2020 being so difficult for so many, "...it really is a year to grab inspiration, to create, and to remember to be grateful and kind.
