ON THE COVER: Hook Mountain Picnic is a winter scene at Nyack Beach State Park in Upper Nyack, New York, on the Hudson River. It was painted by Beverley Bozarth Colgan, a watercolorist who specializes in views of beautiful landscapes in the United States. As a longtime resident of the Hudson River Valley, she has also painted views of Cape Cod (in the state of Massachusetts), national parks, and lesser known but wonderful areas. Ms. Bozarth’s work has appeared in many books and magazines, including those dedicated to gardening, architectural design, and residential improvement. Many of her original watercolors and prints can be seen at bozarthwatercolors.etsy.com.
