Artist Reception – Echoes of Nature by Beth Stinson at the beachKraft – Olney, MD

beachKraft Art Gallery is pleased to present Echoes of Nature: The Alchemy of Beth Stinson, a captivating solo exhibition by artist Beth Stinson, running from December 5, 2025 through January 30, 2026.

Known for her innovative technique termed “echo printing,” Stinson melds the natural world with her vision by imprinting plants’ forms and essences directly onto paper through an organic dyeing process. This exhibition reveals a stunning series of works where botanical imprints serve as the foundation for layered compositions enhanced with watercolor and ink.

Beth Stinson’s work is a unique fusion of science and serendipity, where light, color, and time converge in an experimental dialogue between nature and chemistry. The results are often mysterious and atmospheric, rich with organic textures that invite viewers into a deeper meditation on transformation, impermanence, and the quiet beauty uncovered in the creative process. Each piece is an alchemical journey, capturing the fluid interaction of the environment with artistic expression.

The gallery will host an artist reception on December 13, 2025, from 5 to 7 PM, giving attendees the opportunity to meet Beth and discuss her work firsthand. Visitors to the show are encouraged to explore the layers of meaning within these evocative compositions and experience firsthand the blend of nature’s ephemeral beauty with the permanence of art.

Join us at beachKraft Art Gallery this winter to witness Beth Stinson’s remarkable exploration of organic form and transformation. This exhibition promises to inspire a deeper appreciation for the intricate connections between art, nature, and time.
