"I want to explore something different..... I need a little time to nurture my soul..... I really want to paint something for my child's room.... my sister.... my first art show....."
I hear so many good reasons for stepping out of the box to make that first move... or to rekindle creativity.
I work with adults on a very flexible basis. If you want one-on-one time to do drawing or beginning acrylic painting... or ... if you would rather paint in your own studio and only want the occasional consultation, arrangements can be made.
Times are generally, 10am or 1pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The cost is $40 an hour.
I schedule the same one-hour time slot for you each week.
We can meet every week, every other week, or schedule consultations once a month. We can work either inside the gallery surrounded by art or outside in the studio garden surrounded by nature.
.... currently taking sign-ups. Contact me at artupfrontstreet@gmail.com if you have questions or want to take a studio tour to see if this is a good fit for you.
SEE MY WORK AT ART UP FRONT STREET. 120 FRONT STREET IN UPTOWN EXETER, NH
Lots of snow... inspiring days....
Today the light is AMAZING against the snow. In my mind I see soft lavender, soft periwinkle blue, soft pinks and touches of yellow to suggest snow (even though snow is white). Thinking in these terms makes the process even more exciting and challenging. So today... I am working on a winter painting.... details to follow. There will be no loss for subject matter ideas... as there is another storm a brewin'.
In the meantime, if you have not done so already, take a look at ART UP FRONT STREET. My studio is there as well as the studios of 3 other artists.... Deb Wheeler Bean, Gaby Grossman, and Dawn Amey. There are the beginnings of a great collaboration starting here.... see you soon :-) .

hello art friends, this is what's been in the works...
my husband, Mal, and I have purchased the building at 120 front street. it was most recently the New Heights Teen Center, just before that... New Outlook Teen Center, before that the 120 Deli and Market/Laundromat, and before that in the early 1900's Poggio's Market. I will elaborate on all of those at some point.... because the ties to community with this building mean a lot to us.
we have, with the help of MANY, turned the bottom floor and basement into an artists' collective of studios and work spaces. my studio is there. mal's computer business is there... and we have three fabulous artist friends who are moving in this January.... Deb Wheeler-Bean, Dawn Amey, and Gaby Grossman. there are 4 more studios available at this writing.
there is an application process for studio space... our goal with this adventure is to maintain a collaborative effort for all of our art businesses and MOST importantly to be a nurturing space for creative energy.
there will be a few shows a year. we will have gallery hours. we will have "salons" and demos and a podcast or two. there is parking, a kitchen, and a back yard..... we really look forward to sharing it with you.
for more info about our vision, the building and studio rentals, click art up front street.
thank you to all who have been so enthusiastic over the years... we look forward to making many memories with you in this new space. :-)

Art Up Front Street... coming January 2017
Well THAT was a good year of "tinkering". We are now embracing an art opportunity that has only been a dream until now.... but actually, as I think about it more, we will probably continue to dream (thank goodness) while we put the ideas together for quite a few years. The process will be organic for sure. Don't expect a grand opening :-).... just a growing collaboration of like minds. Oh, and of course there will be a party or two. Happy Holidays, everyone. see you in2017.
There's some tinkering going on.
The "studio" is getting a re-do.... so our wheels are not in motion for the 2016 Mother's Day event or for in-studio showings. Please, stop in downtown at The Willow to see my work. Happy spring and glorious summer, everyone! I will update you in the fall.
