“Finding the Wild in Madison, Wisconsin,” watercolor paintings by Abigail Degner, will be on view in the Steinhauer Trust Gallery in January and February.

The exhibit showcases the beauty of nature found all over Madison and celebrates the extravagance of the natural world. Degner’s artistic inspiration also comes from her personal gardening journey, restoring a neglected garden and transforming it into “the best home for plants and animals that it can be.”
