Two Rhode Island natives—Christopher W. Benson & Russell Horton—who have each lived and painted for many years in the American Southwest, will be exhibiting their western landscapes at MSW from October 26th, 2023 to February 4th, 2024.
Benson and Horton were co-recipients in of a first place prize in a juried group show in Washington Depot, Connecticut in 2015. The awarding juror was the late Yale University professor and renowned realist painter William Bailey.
