Berkshire Botanical Garden: Alchemy & Innocents – Works By Anastasia Traina
May 5 – June 25
5 West Stockbridge Road, Stockbridge, MA
www.berkshirebotanical.org
Gallery hours: Seven days a week, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Anastasia Traina’s “Alchemy and Innocents” illuminates the botanical world and its hidden creatures by building a Nouveau-Victorian landscape inhabited by magical insects and fauna placed into realistic botanic backdrops. By embracing watercolor, graphite, colored pencil, hand- pressed paper, kiln cast glass, and pate de verre, the work seeks to excite and inspire its audiences to rediscover the efflorescing beauty already around them — giving us an even more profound sense of wonder and appreciation for the extraordinary living within our own little corner.

NEW BRAUNFELS TEXAS — Lark Mason Associates is presenting jewelry and fashion from the estate of Mary Yturria on iGavelAuctions.com, which opens for online bidding on May 30 through June 15.

Said Lark Mason: “Mary was the quintessential style-setter in the 1950s, and her jewelry and clothing reflect her sophisticated taste. As a stewardess for Pan Am Airlines during its heyday, she was able to experience the world and developed a love of China and Asia from her many trips abroad. She eventually met her husband Frank Yturria, whose ancestors were from one of Texas’ legendary ranching families.”

According to Mason, the couple spearheaded many civic projects in Brownsville, Texas, and across the state of Texas, including the preservation of the endangered Texas ocelot and other native species and restoration of historic buildings throughout the Rio Grande Valley. Mary and Frank were very active politically, supporting the arts, literacy, health, safety and education.
