More than 175 artists displayed their original work around the Circle on Jan. 28 for the annual Winter Art Festival. From bamboo pieces and photography to sculptures and jewelry, the displays brought plenty of variety for everyone to enjoy.
Artists mingled with attendees, and some were even working on their next pieces during the festival. Lynda Kodwyck paints portraits and seascapes and was working on a portrait of her granddaughter during the festival. For her, she wants her work to dig deep.
