Wild Side of the Suburbs: The Art of Paula Pitman Brown on Exhibit at Broadmoor

On Display January 3-February 28, 2025 

Mass Audubon’s Broadmoor in Natick will feature the captivating oil paintings of acclaimed artist Paula Pitman Brown. Paula’s work combines anatomical mastery of local wildlife with boldly saturated depictions of human development to expertly convey the merging of these two worlds, which are often at odds to reconcile with each other. 

About the Exhibition

Artist's Statement

Our sleepy, complacent streets are more than meet the eye. On my many walks throughout the day, I often encounter many animals. I am always exhilarated when I see them. I marvel at their beauty and adaptability. I hope that my paintings help remind people how important co-existence is between us suburbanites and our wild neighbors. 

About the Artist

Paula Pitman Brown’s goal has always been to teach and create art. She enjoys the balance of quiet contemplation in her studio with the social engagement of the studio class. This interaction and sharing of art ideas, combined with her artistic process, is essential for Paula when it comes to creating her own art. Paula is a dual-major (Painting and Art History) graduate of Massachusetts College of Art and has shown her work extensively around New England for many years.

Opening Reception

A celebratory reception will take place on Sunday, January 26 at 2:00 pm (snow date, February 2 at 2:00 pm).
