Artist Shaw exhibits work at QUUF

Visual artist Susan Gansert Shaw is currently exhibiting a body of work at Quimper Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 2333 San Juan Ave. Shaw lives and creates on the Olympic Peninsula, displaying her watercolor and mixed-media pieces in her studio at Rock Hollow Farm. Shaw’s background includes a BFA from Syracuse University, as well as numerous workshops, awards and solo shows. “But it is a walk on the beach, a hike in the hills or the solitude of my studio that continue to be my inspiration,” Shaw said.
