Whispers of Winter
Art for the Season
Windham Fine Arts presents, shhhhhhhh, “Whispers of Winter: Art for the Season.” Step into the serene beauty of winter with our December art show.
This collection captures the quiet magic of the season, from snow-blanketed villages along the Hudson to vibrant scenes of skiers at Windham Mountain. Highlights include the latest by artist Loreen Oren, known for transcending viewers to chairlifts and high peaks and Barry DeBaun with his depiction of Saugerties, in the “Village on the Hudson.” Katie Mahon Kuzin, charms us with soft pinks and blues and the ethereal beauty of winter in “Dream.” Art for the season is here, at Windham Fine Arts—where it’s warm, beautiful, and waiting for you.

Hizawa Ryujin’s Japanese Masterpieces
Windham Fine Arts is honored to introduce three exquisite works by Japanese artist Hizawa Ryujin, whose mastery of traditional techniques brings the beauty of nature to life. The pieces—Autumn, Stop Raining, and Cherry Tree at Manabe Elementary—are hand-painted using time-honored methods and materials that have been integral to Japanese art for centuries.
Autumn and Stop Raining are rendered in sumi-ink and gofer ink techniques that capture the nuanced shifts in light and shadow, evoking the serene, meditative quality of the changing seasons. Cherry Tree at Manabe Elementary, painted with mineral pigments on a 6-panel silk folding screen, offers a breathtaking glimpse of the over 100-year-old cherry tree that stands proudly on the grounds of Manabe Elementary School in Japan.
Each piece reflects a profound connection to both nature and tradition, offering viewers a rare opportunity to engage with the spirit and techniques of ancient Japanese artistry.
