Del Martin wants you to come with her on trips to foreign countries.
Not in airplanes, but in art.
The Atlanta-based painter – who grew up in Dalton, Ga. – travels the world, painting landscapes, wildlife and other vistas in plein air (works done in the open air). She will merge those worlds in June with an exhibit called “The Best Journeys Take You Home” at the Dalton Creative Arts Guild.
“Come see paintings inspired by first trips to both South Africa and Alaska,” Martin says.
