TEACHINGS OF SPRING

  • Friday, May 2, 2025
    5pm to 8pm

A story about life's cycles. Working underground in the quiet dark, seedlings emerge. Ephemeral blooms from earth's eternal well of creation. A tender moment of beauty passing like clouds on the horizon. Scattering seeds in the wind, then laying to rest. Sowing potentials without promise before returning to the land that birthed them. Only to start again, over and over. Flowering in patient hands and good soil. Or despite it all. Cropping up in unexpected places, persistent and wild. Rising from stillness, reaching for the light.

Featuring new work by local floral artist and owner of Green Tractor Farm Rachel Dixon, and visiting earth pigment painter Danielle Hutchens.

DANIELLE HUTCHENS

Danielle Hutchens is a Topanga-based painter and ceramicist, using sustainable practices to bring an earthy essence to her pieces. Danielle’s art explores themes of play, the balance of feminine and masculine energy, and curiosity sparked by nature. Her process is patient and hands-on, working with natural materials, sourcing pigments from hikes, and mixing them with nontoxic binders like walnut oil. She also experiments with recycled clay as color on unprimed canvas – fusing her practices and media together naturally.
