June Alder

Clara Bennett paints fast-moving outdoor studies under the name June Alder, returning to creeks, parking lots, and neighborhood tree lines at different hours of the day. Her brushwork is loose, but the paintings are anchored by a deep attention to weather and shifting light.

“I paint places that might otherwise disappear into routine. The goal is not to document them faithfully, but to keep the sensation of being there while light is actively changing the scene.”
