Community Canvas is an initiative presented by The Culture Show where GBH features artwork from community members on our Digital Mural.
Today’s mural is a painting of a sheep by Anne Hitch. This painting serves as a gentle reminder of the quiet beauty found in the animals that often go unnoticed in our busy lives. Sheep, like so many creatures, are easily taken for granted. Yet, they embody simplicity, warmth, and a sense of calm that can bring unexpected joy to our everyday moments.
“Their presence, whether in nature or through art, invites us to appreciate the small, unassuming wonders of the world around us,” Hitch says.
Hitch is a Cape Cod artist who comes from a long lineage of artists. She studied at Parsons School of Design and graduated from Pratt-Phoenix School of Design, with a certificate in magazine and book illustration. She later earned a B.A. in art and education from Marymount Manhattan College and a M.A. in expressive art therapy from Lesley College Graduate School.
