Burnt Hills Library will host two artists from the Southern Saratoga Art Society 
in the community room for the month of June.  Rebecca Jenkins of Mechanicville 
is a graduate of Russell Sage with a degree in Photography.  Her artwork 
reflects her views as she travels and explores both locally and abroad.  She 
loves photographing sometimes uncooperative subjects under water. 

Patricia Wade of Ballston Lake loves to sketch and paint in various mediums, 
watercolor, oils, coffee and most recently alcohol ink paint.  She has studied 
with several local artists.  Both artists exhibit at various venues locally.  
The exhibit will run from June 1 through June 29.
 

Clifton Park Senior Community Center
Valerie Woodward of Clifton Park, a retired Geologist and self-taught 
water-colorist will be exhibiting for the month of June at the Clifton Park 
Senior Community Center.  Not being one to follow the set "rules" of watercolor 
painting, she approaches each painting with a separate perspective.  Valerie 
does some "quirky cartoon collage" paintings in pen and watercolor to balance 
her more serious works.  She says "Life is time made up of layers of seeing and 
feeling and a painting represents only a sliver.  View some of her work on-line
