New Artist Celeste Fleming recently joined Gallery 302, at 112 Main St. in Bridgton.
The watercolor and mixed media artist earned her undergraduate degree is in Psychology and Fine Arts. While she pursued psychology in graduate school and as a career she has always taken classes and practiced art forms as an avocation. After retiring from her psychotherapy practice, she and her husband moved to Maine where they had vacationed for over 30 years. She often takes the opportunity to plein air watercolor sketch as they hike the woodlands and mountains and paddle the lakes, soaking up inspiration.
She began painting in earnest in 2020. Her pandemic silver lining was having the time to paint from her heart and fall in love with the wonder of watercolor. She is energized by the flow, unpredictability and challenge of watercolor. Experimentation and play are essential to her painting process. Her work is rooted in the exploration of the external landscape and her own inner landscape.
