Anne Grandin

Using organic shapes to connect earth, sky, land and sea, Anne depicts the relationship of all life forms to one another.  Nature's rhythms and movements are important, as life is never still;  it's always changing.  Anne works in oil paint on canvas, panel, or constructed forms,  using a palette of earth tones that reflect nature's landscapes.

Influenced by the Circle of Life found in Native American culture, Anne hopes her work will have a spiritual essence and that anyone looking at her work can be transported to another level,  feel the piece and react emotionally. 

On Structures: Structures are all around us.  Man-made objects reach to the sky, reflects nature's landscape and have a presence in their existence.  In this series, some structures are painted on canvas;  others are structures that have been built. Some are boxes that open to reveal the "heart" of that which is painted on the outside.
Structures are like humans.  On the outside they can be as cold as a building.  The human protects itself by creating barriers.  Only when the "door" is opened do we see the heart inside, that which represents who the human really is.

Kate Carleton

Kate’s abstract seascapes and dune series are inspired from the ever- changing light of the ocean and the sky, the wind on the beach grass, and the sensual forms of the dunes.  She paints “A la Prima” on the beaches of Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, Truro, Wellfleet, Provincetown, and Duxbury.  Kate's work comes from her memories of walking on the beach, feeling the meditative and calming influence of the ocean and its ability to make her feel connected to all things.

Kate Nelson

Painter Kate Nelson is drawn to and moved by the outdoor life. She often paints in the wild: marsh, beach, bluff, woodland. And though her images are abstract, usually non-representational, they are infused with the vitality, the atmosphere, the "sense" of the place where she stands and paints -- wind whipped, bug bitten and sun scorched; open to impulse and unconstrained.
"As I paint, I try for my work to be like good jazz, disciplined, yet free, spare yet full, within a rich tradition yet achingly personal."

Rick Hoffman

Rick Hoffman's work transends reality.  Using the periodic table,  each piece is reminiscent of a compound found in the human spirit.  After gazing at the work, one is truly transported feeling the new color vibration.    This  atmosphere encapsulates the deeply invisible - those subtle colors that lay beneath skin, bones and blood.   In other words, the work depicts the essence of the spiritual human.  Hoffman is ahead of his time painting images that vibrate.  He has captured the invisible by using lines to delinate the various levels.  Rick paints beneath and through the surface and into each seperate and individual molecule or floating atom that make up existence.  By using layers and layers of oil paint, these paintings substantiate alternative realities.l

Ron Hall

Ron Hall's photography focuses on light - and how light can change  familiar settings and effuse them with feelings of transiency. This collection of photographs taken almost always between dusk and dawn create a feeling that the light could change in an instant. Familiar surroundings become somehow mystical - almost haunted. They are places we know, yet disturbingly almost ominously calm. For all the visual power the image appears to possess, we somehow sense that it may be gone in a moment.

Tom McQuade

               
Tom McQuade uses bold colors, strokes and shapes.  These three dimensional pieces compile a world that moves.  Tom's fundamental basis is structured from the fragmented conciousness.  All humans make up shades of vibes, tones, and forms.  In McQuade's work we understand pieces form into the whole.  His vibrant use of color make each work come alive.  The works take on rythm creating a true depiction of life.  Tom's skill aids the viewer to understand the multi-fractured levels of existence.
