Bair’s “Warm Waters”
She graduated from Colby Sawyer College in New London, New Hampshire, with a liberal arts degree and from the University of California Riverside with a Bachelor of Arts degree in studio art and photography. Her career began as a graphic designer and photography rep in New York City.
“After living in Florida and transitioning from representational to abstract art, I am now confident to be exhibiting in my hometown of Darien,” Bair said.
“It’s full circle for me. This is where I developed my artistic skills — learning from names like Gayle Asher, Constance Kiermaier and Helen Cantrell at the Darien Arts Center.”
