Thank you to Judith Potter for contributing this buoy titled "Seahorses Under the Sea" to the 2026 Stonington Lobster Trap Tree!

Judith Potter has been an award-winning photographer since 1992 and is equally passionate about watercolors and pastels. Her art is a heartfelt tribute to the local color and spirit of Woonsocket and its surroundings. Judith's work goes beyond visual representation; it's an intimate journey through the community she adores. Her photographs and paintings offer a unique narrative, blending the everyday life and the distinct charm of the area. With each piece, whether captured through her camera or painted with delicate strokes, Judith reveals the soul of the city. Her art is not just a portrayal, but an invitation to view Woonsocket through her eyes—a place rich in beauty and stories. http://www.potterphotography.com/
