Take the opportunity to glimpse works in progress, browse what's for sale, and discuss methods and process with the studios' artists.
Stephen Chesley
In Stephen Chesley's studio, paintings stacked deep and high crowd an easel, stool, and easy chair into a back corner. In contrast, Laura Spong works within an open space. Her easel sits distant from a chair that offers needed perspective for critiques. Paintings are stored orderly along one wall. In the studio of sculptor Sharon Licata, materials and artwork achieve impressive scale and weight.
Susan Lenz
Spend time in these creative spaces, talk with the artists, and perhaps gain insight into the unfathomable leap from materials to creation: the exquisite surface of Susan Lenz's textiles or Don Zurlo's abstracts, the whimsical characters of Jeff Donovan's ceramics or David Yaghjian's paintings; the evocative constructions by Heidi Darr Hope or Pat Callahan. Understand the inspiration behind the Michel McNinch's landscapes, Ethel Brody's abstracts, or Robert Kennedy's and Pat Gilmartin's figurative works.
