The Pit is pleased to present Flowers and Mushrooms, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Grass Valley, California–based artist Bella Foster, her fifth solo exhibition with the gallery. The exhibition will be on view January 17 - March 5, 2026 with an opening reception on January 17 from 5-7pm. 

Known for her luminous interiors and intimate still lifes, Foster captures the magic of ordinary spaces and objects with rare tenderness. Her works invite viewers into a world where the familiar becomes radiant, and where the act of painting itself becomes a form of contemplation and care. Over the past two decades, Foster has developed a singular practice grounded in drawing, watercolor, and acrylic painting. She is known for her ability to merge humor, warmth, and a painter’s devotion to beauty into a cohesive, resonant vision.
