Photography
Tom Chesnut
To convey universal messages of peace and tranquility, Tom's work uses views of Nature without human intrusion.  He feels a strong connection with the Natural World and this interconnectedness shows in his work.  From his plot of woods in Sand Lake, to New York’s Adirondacks and Vermont’s Green Mountains, to the Mormon Trail and alpine lakes in Wyoming, he endeavors to show his appreciation for the Natural World in his photographs.

Daniele Ippoliti-DeShaw
Her desire to expose the lost wonders of nature's little intricacies is seen in the  variety of abstractions she creates through photography.  Using single shots,  kaleidoscope images, or creating collages with bits and pieces of her nature photographs, she creates unique characters who come with a message.

Watercolors by Tom Ryan Watercolors
I particularly enjoy the quiet serenity of the Adirondacks and try to capture that emotional feeling in my watercolors.  I paint almost exclusively using the primary colors of red, yellow, and blue, typically using two of each.  I start many of my paintings by soaking the watercolor paper and utilizing a wet-in-wet technique that results in soft edges that I particularly enjoy.  Once the paper dries, I add dark hard edge strokes for interest and to emphasize the center of interest in the painting. The result is a painting that is a blend of soft and hard edges.  I painted the watercolor "Fall Time" on location in October 2008. The background is a mixture of mostly soft and a few hard edges.  The "whites" are the white watercolor paper with no paint applied.
