Colleen Belanger
I grew up in Irasburg, VT., and credit a lot of my interest in the arts to my experiences in school. My teacher at Lake Region Union High School introduced many forms of art. I especially liked inking, pastels, charcoals and acrylics. I learned the "home arts": crafting, quilting, knitting and crocheting from my mom and aunt. During the 70's I was busy raising a family. In the 90's I began a new career in Human Services and in 2003 I received my Associates Degree in Psychology. I’ve had an...

I also appreciate comments received from those who view my work and am gratified when I sell some of my paintings.
My watercolor paintings have been shown with the Wooden Horse Arts Guild and...

Paula Holland
As an artist, I am fascinated by the interplay of line, color and form that together create a sense of motion in what is by its nature a stationary medium. I'm attracted also by tension created by impasto areas juxtaposed with the flatness of the surface and the illusion of depth created by form and color. I seek to evoke an emotional response and reflection in the onlooker: a sense of joy and wonder.

Camilla Mead
In 1995, after years of raising a family, directing church choral and Handbell choirs on Cape Cod, I "discovered" the art of making porcelain dolls.

Bonnie Nash
My adventure creating art from fiber first began when we sheared alpacas that we raised on our farm in the Northeast kingdom of Vermont. It was impossible to resist handling their soft, luxurious fleeces. As I began the journey of creating art with alpaca fiber my visionary spirit directed me to work with all types of fibers including silk, soy and other natural plant and animal fibers. To execute one-of-a-kind artwork I integrate these various fibers using wet, dry, and needle felting...
R.J. Pasho
As a lifelong resident of Vermont, I have never found a place that filled the part of me with so much love and peace. I try to show others, through my eyes, what I see, and put it on paper, canvas or wood. It is my hope that in some small way I can help others to take a second look at life around us and enjoy what we see and know how wonder-full nature really is. I've tried so many ways to interpret my love for art and I always go back to my old paint and paper!
Adrien Patenaude
Farming has always been my passion. The landscapes, trees, fields, valleys, rivers, animals...the way the sky meets the hills and landscape, and the way the seasons change the appearance in shapes and light, have played a large roll in expanding my perception of the environment, and has helped me to see more than just the reality of the view.
Adrien's "Dancing Pears Studio" is at 194 Main Street in Newport, Vt. The entrance is located between the Newport Natural Foods and Montgomery...

Sydney Stevens
As a mixed media artist and compulsive collector, there’s nothing I like more than spending time in my studio creating art and "communing with my stuff." That process resulted in the design of several lines of one-of-a-kind note and gift cards. Each card begins with papers I paint by hand and embellish with international postage stamps, vintage ephemera, found objects, bindis, crystals, glitter, ribbon and roses. All are unique and most are suitable for framing.
Recently I’ve begun...
