For more than a decade, environmental artists Howard and Mary McCoy have been creating extraordinary art in the forest at Adkins Arboretum. Primarily using elements found naturally in the landscape just a few miles south of Route 301, the McCoys have been using the Adkins 300 acre woods as a unique natural canvas to highlight the special connection between nature and art.
Now the husband and wife team have returned to Adkins this summer with a new exhibit starting June 3. The Spy was able to get a sneak preview of their new work and talk about the importance of environmental art with them last Saturday.
