Item Description
A tribute to the love story behind Dr. Zarren's Healing Garden, this is a pair of framed 5 x 7" watercolor sketchings of views from patient and staff terraces.
The Lynn Union Hospital has enjoyed this lovely garden for 15 years, after a building manager fell in love with a geriatric care director at the hospital. Add the zany energy of retired cardiac surgeon Dr. Harvey Zarren, and a crew of people including some of Lynnfield's Townscape gardiners, helped build and grow an incredible retreat for the hospital patients and staff alike.
Running through the garden is a river with KOI gold fish - the waterway originates at the hospital chapel and runs throughout what has become twelve terrace areas such as nurse's terrace even a butterfly terrace.
With the regions healthcare budgets forcing changes here, artist Kendall Inglese captures the spirit of the care behind the plantings and design of this great garden.
The technique used is quick pen and ink sketch and then watercolor on archival stock. However Kendall also did this in china painting techniques on tile with the influence of Lynnfield Clay and Tile Artist Liz Visco. Liz's Rock Fish have been featured in previous LAG biddingforgood auction.
