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 contemporary painting titled Northbound View by Donna Caselden. The artwork is made of oil, cold wax, and marble dust on a 30“ x 30” canvas.
“This scene is based on the view I see when traveling northbound on Route 93, right before I get into Boston,” Caselden says. “It’s a common view for me, as I travel that road quite a bit when leaving my art studio on Harrison Ave in the South End.”
Caselden is an award-winning experimental artist known for diverse techniques and mediums, most notably contemporary paintings ranging from impressionistic to abstract. Her work has been positively reviewed by various publications including USA Today and New England Home, and has been displayed in museums, galleries, universities, and private collections, including the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM).
