Sacred Ground:
During the past thirty years of painting in the Hudson Valley, I have become keenly aware of the loss of nature & the diminishing American Landscape. Yet, I have also discovered hallowed grounds, those sacred areas respected & protected from population growth & the resulting developmental ruin. I am incredibly grateful to the many organizations & dedicated, insightful people preserving our landscape, particularly in the Hudson Valley. - Marlene Wiedenbaum, PSA 2007
