Boston Art Students Association Exhibition Review
The Boston Art Students Association exhibition at the Boston Art Club displays tentative but promising talent with several notable heads and landscapes. H B Warren’s gallery presents progress with strong watercolors while some oils feel heavy, though color is appealing.
