About the Cover

The oil painting of a slice of juicy summer watermelon on
this issue’s cover is by Marty Shively, a local artist and
member of the group Artists of Bristol on the Delaware. “I once

thought of art as an unnecessary frill in life, best appreciated by

those with time and money to spare,” she says. “Through years

of personal study and reflection, I now begin to understand the

value of art in life and our lives as a Work of Art.”

“I gain inspiration from all aspects of life, incorporating in

my work everything

from worldwide travel J6A
to a daily walk in the

woods. If I evoke a

response from myself or

others, I consider this a

success.”

The watermelon

painting is part of the

Summer Sojourn exhibit

O5A at Silver Lake Nature

Center, which is open

to the public and will

run until June 24th. The

Nature Center is located

at 1306 Bath Road in
