Artist of the Month
Molly Burnette
The Fredericksburg Art Guild, located at 308 E. Austin Street in Fredericksburg, will
celebrate the art of Molly Burnette at a First Friday Art Walk reception on September
1, from 4:00 - 8:00 p.m. Ms. Burnette’s show will run from August 31 through October
1 in the Art Guild’s featured artist Gallery.
Burnette lives in Fredericksburg. Her show’s title is “The Absolution Series.” In her
own words, “The Absolution Series is about the forgiveness and freeing of the soul, my
soul, from personal hardship and the feeling that I got to gain control of my life. I was
holding on so tightly to the outcome that…nothing was happening and I wasn't getting
anything done. As soon as I let go and surrendered, everything began to flow and I
loved painting again. This series is an expression of that freedom and surrender.”
Burnette Has a BFA in Studio Art from the University of Colorado Boulder. She has
been an artist since she was a child, growing up in Georgetown, Texas. Her mother
nurtured and supported her art, and has been a great influence all of her life.
She is an Abstract Expressionist using meditation and her spiritual practice to inspire
her paintings. Her paintings, always colorful and full of movement, are definitely
unique. Also influencing her are her daily walks with her two Corgis.
Burnette’s website can be viewed at www.mollyburnette.com. Also, you may check
her out on Instagram @mollyaburnette, and on Facebook search for
MollyBurnetteArt.
The Art Guild is open Thursday through Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. each

COLOR CHOICES by Lee and Gayle Wilson
Please join Lee and Gayle Wilson at the Fredericksburg Art Guild, 308 E. Austin, to celebrate their
combined art at the First Friday Art Walk, November 4, 2022, 5:00 – 8:00 p.m. Gayle creates
arrangements of found objects on reclaimed wood while Lee’s medium is photography. The theme for
their show will focus on monochromatic pieces which both artists believe will assist the viewer to focus
on features such as line, shape, form and texture, rather than color. In contrast, they will also present
colorful and vibrant pieces - all designed to encourage viewers to consider how color and its absence
contribute to works of art. Their work will be on display through November 27. Lee and Gayle often
combine their talents on other art works, such as the whimsical painted birdbaths, birdhouses, and
peace poles they sell through their business, Bobcat Ranch Workshop in Fredericksburg.
