SOME OF TRAC'S ARTISTS
GARY POLONSKI
TRAC'S 1ST ART SHOW
DEC '18/JAN '19
Polonski is a self-described “Colorist” endeavoring to produce works that delight viewer’s senses through unique arrangements of color, texture and composition.
BECKY ROBBINS
"Oil pastels are probably my favor-ite medium because I like to paint with my fingers and the lipstick-like properties are so fun to work with. Smearing and blending and scraping all comes very intuitively to me. Regardless of the medium, my paintings tend to be loosely realistic, with explorations into the abstract qualities of both the subject and the background, along with the deeper and more metaphysical aspects of spirit and emotion."
SUE DUNN
Being inspired by Maine's beauty, Sue decided it was time to follow in her mother’s footsteps and try her hand at painting...
MELANIE TORNBERG
"I get immersed in the moment. If you meet me, and my sentences fade off strangely, it's because I've become distracted by the way the light is sparkling in your earrings or the richness of the color of your shirt. I hope you just laugh, because I'm laughing at myself, too. Being a painter is a joyful thing, and hopefully a sense of that is what you see when you look at my paintings."
SUZANNE HARDY
“Being an artist is a privilege and also a great deal of fun. Art is magic, a force of nature that comes with a dream or inspiration. I enjoy giving something back to the world that is positive. I hope you enjoy what I produce.”
WILL LEITCH
Will is happiest when learning, whether it’s reading a new book, trying a new recipe, meeting a new person, visiting a new place or capturing the moment with his camera. He is at his best when he is moving and outside, preferably among mountains and trees.
BRENDAN LEITCH
Brendan Leitch does art for his own inner peace and also loves to create and spread beauty in any way possible.
QUENTIN STOCKWELL
Light-Q Creations is a small, southern Maine based company making steampunk, industrial, re-purposed antique lamps and other lighting fixtures as the mood and inspiration takes artist, Quentin Stockwell.
MARIAN LAROCHE
TRAC'S 2ND ART SHOW
FEB/MARCH 2019
Marian calls her creations Weathervane Quilts, signifying both New England imagery and—as her techniques vary so widely—that the final design might come from any direction. She works in many different fabric styles and varies between traditional piecing, paper piecing and applique.
ELIZABETH OEHLKERS WRIGHT
When taking pictures, Elizabeth concentrates on the inside and/or outside to within a few feet of her home, wherever she may be living, enjoying the inner silence of visual perception.
WENDY HASLAM
"I started out mainly painting pictures of my children, then moved on to ocean and mountains, and snow scenes. I like to use light and reflections in my paintings. I like to paint the things in my life that I love."
DENNIS DREHER
RETROSPECTIVE
APRIL 2019
The words of the artist: “Even though I am known as a sculptor, I consider myself an 'organic' painter, choosing color by emotion and form from color. Early in my career I became intrigued by the color reproduction process. This led in turn to my involvement with 'space weaving' and computer graphics. My work has come full circle and one step up as I now weave masses of color in space.”
KEVIN WINSOR
As a wood worker, Kevin is self-taught. His designs are inspired by the beauty and character of the wood he works with. Every piece marries traditional hand-crafted skill with clean, sculptured lines that will bring unique style to your home.
DEIRDRE CAVANAGH
TRAC'S 7TH SHOW
AUG/SEPT 2019
I could on the other hand rhapsodize about how the paper (cold press, hot press, rough, BFK rives) responds to the ink, the water, the paint, about expensive brushes when one can afford them and fine pen nibs when one can find them.
MICHAEL RIZZO
TRAC'S 4TH SHOW WITH SN&C ARTISTS
JUNE 2019
Art is the manna that feeds my soul.
