"Often the work would begin and stay in the most non-objective terms — large gestures and marks of strong colors — only to remain that way for months and sometimes years, awaiting a direction to declare itself, or for me to act. It wasn’t a matter of me simply deciding what the subject of any given painting would be — it was a matter of my waiting for painting’s intrinsic “thing” to reveal itself to me.

This might sound absurd, but it seemed more real to me, more authentic to find a subject in the cloud of strokes and colors than impose one from outside. And so it was, as I began breaking down the painted strokes and colors, a repertory of characters and places emerged… My rear garden, my family, the park and trees in Brooklyn that I often go to, street dancers, my dog and others, a density of lichen-frosted pines on a walk in Deer Isle. Often the issue arose on the same picture as images emerged; a face here, a bit of foliage there, how would they meet or wed as a continuous fabric?

And that adventure of the unknown is a blessed place I now covet." - Grant Drumheller ("Night Dancers," Grant Drumheller, flashe on linen, 40" x 40".)

"My hope in these works is to cause the viewer to stop and study the forms and colors, and to consider what stories these ‘things as they are’ might have been given new life to tell." - John Whalley ("Old Hand," John Whalley, oil on panel, 15.75" x 14".)

“The land is like poetry: it is inexplicably coherent, it is transcendent in its meaning, and it has the power to elevate a consideration of human life.” - Barry Lopez; "Poetry in Green," Tom Paiement, mixed media on panel, 24" x 24".

"My lifetime of painting has been an exploration of light and its complex relationship with the natural world. As I transition between pastels and oils, between real and imagined landscapes and abstracts, my 'voice,' which is an expression of light, remains a constant. How I express this changes because each painting becomes a journey that propels me forward through the process of experimentation and investigation." - Kathleen Galligan ("Walking to the Surf," Kathleen Galligan, oil on panel, 10" x 11".)
