    Article about "No Comfort Zone" - An exhibit that arose from an experience Rosemary and 4 other artists shared during an intensive summer painting workshop by Marcia Reed, owner of Milford’s newest downtown art gallery, Gallery 37.

  • Studios Upstairs Hosts New Gallery

    Article about "No Comfort Zone" - An exhibit that arose from an experience Rosemary and 4 other artists shared during an intensive summer painting workshop by Marcia Reed, owner of Milford’s newest downtown art gallery, Gallery 37.

    "Artist Rosemary Connelly felt that the workshop taught by Reed helped her to experience other aspects of her artistic creativity that she usually would
    not have focused on. Comfortably creating her artwork in ink pen and watercolors for years, Rosemary stepped outside her comfort zone paining with a
    brush and acrylics." Click here for the story.
