Peggy Hesse – Three Rivers Gallery

“Out of the Wild” is the new installation by Peggy Hesse now showing at Three Rivers Gallery. “Wild nature inspires me, the tangle of undergrowth, the hanging vines, stately trees, the constantly changing light on the bayous and rivers. To me the wild places are holy and set apart in the quiet from the noise and congestion of today’s world.” – Peggy Hesse
