Melanie Mowinski

Melanie Mowinski likes paper and what goes ON paper. She likes the visceral and paper becomes a vessel on which she prints, collages, constructs, and more. She draws inspiration from the landscape of her Berkshire Hills home and residencies/travels to places like Iceland, Morocco, Tasmania, Venice, and most recently, from along the Camino de Santiago in Spain. Mowinski embraces measurement and precision in the letterpress process as well as going rogue and making crazy lock-ups with super powerful magnets.

Diane Firtell

Not a photographer….but an artist who uses a camera, almost all of Diane's work, over the years, has originated from the photograph. Making art; a mystery to some, a mandate to others. And while she clearly fall into the latter category, the why still, often times, remains a mystery. Easily bored and not terrifically skilled technologically but, she enjoys being ever engaged in the "what is there for me to do that is different” experience…not necessarily to be different from other artists, but mostly to have a new creative experience for herself. While she continues to do what she enjoys doing, it is exciting for her to know that a year from now something she currently has no conscious awareness of will become part of a fresh and new body of work.

Kara Anton

From her earliest memories, Kara Anton was immersed in the captivating world of the arts. By five, she was mesmerized by Pablo Picasso's bold strokes and fearlessly began painting on large canvases, creating works three-times her size. Born in Royal Oak, Michigan and raised in Laguna Beach, California, Kara embarked on a lifelong love affair with creativity.
