suzanne abramsWestern Avenue Studios 512, Map# 1http://www.sueabrams.com Fiber/ Mixed Media I began my artist career as an abstract painter in the fall of 2008. In 2009, I decided I wanted to make a quilt. So I went to Walmart, bought a sewing machine, and then asked my neighbor to show me how to thread it since I really had no idea how to sew. I now have four sewing machines and sew every day! I love to paint and sew and the two art forms often compliment each other. My work is all about pattern and color. While trying to narrow my focus, I've noticed that it just becomes wider, and I am just going with it. Making art is my life and it's not really a choice but something that I'm compelled to do. I love it though, and that is what's most important.

Raquel BaumanBrush Gallery , Map# 7http://www.raquelbaumanarts.com Tissue Paper Collage and Ink paintings on paper My work is inspired by color, by the fact that forms are not static forever, by the fact that lines and boarders often merge and blend into each other. The dye in tissue paper lends my work entensiy of color. Water facilitates the movement of colors and lines, it helps create new colors, new shades and hues. The tissue collage, because one sheet or piece of tissue in layered on another, has texture. The viewer is drawn closer to the work, often wants to touch it, to run fingers over its surface.

Karen BettencourtWestern Avenue Studios 221, Map# 1http://www.karenbettencourt.com Collage, Fiber, Encaustic I have always been truly fond of that which is old, weathered, rusted or distressed. I search endlessly for old handwritten letters, paper, tickets, photographs, hotel bills, rusted metal, and aged or distressed wood. Some of these treasures I scan to help me create my digital collage work. Then, everything gets sorted into boxes for use in my material collage and assemblage. In every collage, I'm trying to tell a story, using transparency and the effects of time to bring that story to life.

Norma BigginsWestern Avenue Studios A Mill A303, Map# 1Fabric is such an inescapable part of our everyday lives; I have always been amazed at how many ways it could transform into objects of importance. A self-taught quilter, I have never felt bound by rules, developing my own style of hand-guided machine quilting. Working in conjunction with other quilters, I feel gifted to play a role in the creative growth of a quilt in progress. Combining two minds—the quilter and the piecer—we are able to bring the work up to its fullest potential. In the same regard, my own artistic growth has been deeply influenced by a vast quilting community. I enjoy sharing what I’ve learned thru classes using my own patterns, and have been fortunate to lend my skills to manage and participate in community outreach projects. In all my time as a quilter, I have found no greater satisfaction than the knowledge that my creation has become an integral part of someone’s life experience.

Andrea Bobroff PetersWestern Avenue Studios 328, Map# 1Now combining the two worlds of painting and collage, I now consider myself to be a mixed media artist, not just a painter. By using my own collage images in my paintings, it has allowed my art to develop in a way that has been an unexpected, but an enjoyable journey. By combining the two mediums, it has allowed me to be more playful with my audience. I want them to explore deeper into each piece. With different levels of hidden worlds and subliminal images, each viewer will have thier own unique experience. Each will discover something the other missed, making for a more active experience for the viewer.

She has taught art in the Chelmsford Public Schools for 8 years. A member of the Western Avenue Artists Association in Lowell, she works primarily in collage and mixed media. "In my collage and mixed media work I strive to create a richly textured surface using primarily found papers, fabrics, rust, string, paint, pastel, raw pigments, wax and drawing. Some of the work is entirely abstract collage. Other pieces are based on more realistic subjects such as the figure, nature, still life, and most recently, bones. These pieces vary in degree of realism and abstraction. In all of my work I am continuously exploring the interplay of materials, texture, color and composition."

My shapes are inspired by form and space in motion. My work is organic and free flowing; creations of life forms, filled with tranquility, tension, happy and sad emotions.

Barbara FletcherWestern Avenue Studios 303, Map# 1http://www.paperdimensions.com mixed media I am a sculptor, primarily of soft materials such as fabric and paper. The tactile and meditative nature of fabric/fiber/paper attracted me over 25 years ago. Over time I have experimented with many surface design techniques on fiber such as dying, painting, batiking and photography. I am drawn to figurative and animal themed art. My sculptures reflex the humor I see all around me, particularly in the natural world. A major influence on my art has been that of 16th century Dutch painter, Hieronymus Bosch whose mythical creatures are renowned for their satiric and religious content. In the mid-1980's after taking a fantasy illustration course at the Rhode Island School of Design my animals began to personify. This metamorphosis culminated in a commission of fantasy sculptures for writer Stephen King. Animals, insects, fish, birds and other creatures combined to make fantastical forms that hung suspended over an indoor pool and on the wall of the hallway leading to the pool area. I called it my creature evolution series. After arriving in Boston in the late 1980's I began to work with the unusual technique of paper casting. My art was eventually shown in numerous galleries and museums including The DeCordova Museum, The Danforth Museum and a one person show at The Children's Museum in Boston. I have also been featured in many books on paper art and paper casting. Continued exploration with fiber led me to a technique of spraying many overlapping layers of paper pulp onto a wire surface. In this process I discovered that the texture of the paper is illuminated beautifully as the surface is not opaque and allows light to come through. These works are also sculptural. I am completing a series to be exhibited in the coming year.

Born in Lowell, MA and raised in Chelmsford, MA, he started his professional career in 1982, after flirting with a rock musician career, and after taking his fine art education with the Art Insitute of Boston. Tom developed his own style using acrylic paint mostly on canvas to express his emotions, using brush strokes that are full of energy. The result is always loose and impressive with harmonious colors that interplay with light.. He teaches this style through entertaining demonstrations throughout New England art associations. Tom's painting style is inspired by John Singer Sargeant, Norman Rockwell, Richard Schmid, and many others. He describes his style as impressionistic realism. He likes to work fast and paints figures in their own environments. He finishes his paintings spontaneously with what he calls, "slap, dashes and dots".

Kristin KelleyWestern Avenue Studios 321, Map# 1http://www.skiingweaver.com Fiber - Wearable About ten years ago, I made a trip up to Harrisville, NH and bought my first floor-loom (as a kit), built it over the course of a rare weekend off, taught myself to weave, and have been hooked ever since. I've been selling my wearables since 2006, am a Board Member of the Weavers Guild of Boston, and have recently expanded into leading seminars and classes for various New England-area weaving guilds. I work with a variety of fibers, but mostly love to create movement and use color to highlight that movement in my wearable pieces. If you'd like to see a traditional (or a more modern compu-dobby) handloom in action, stop by my studio at WAS!

Rachel KowalikWestern Avenue Studios 430, Map# 1http://www.RachelKowalik.com Oil Painting and Mixed Media Since I have no home in the traditional sense, I create one through my paintings. My palette choices relate to my sensory experiences and are intuitive investigations of color worlds. Line and texture unify the individual pieces. Through multiple layers I build a history. The scale and vertical orientation is linked to the figure as an extension of the autobiographical nature of the work. Often I paint very thin, semi-transparent layers of oil over some form of metallic surface, such as gold leaf or other precious metals. Besides the rich reflective properties of metallic leaf, I use it because precious metals shaped my life. My father moved my family and I around the world every two years as an exploration geologist for the world’s largest gold mining company. My artwork expresses the many different cultural influences I have experienced and helps explore my identity. In casual conversation, I find the simple question, “Where do you come from?” problematic. In short, I come from many places and my work reflects the multiplicity of place, time, and memory

David LeblancWestern Avenue Studios 331, Map# 1http://www.actionabstractionstudio.com acrylic enamel and collage on canvas Artist's Biography David J. Leblanc A wide-eyed fascination with comic books since I was a boy generated a passion for the genre that drives my considerable Abstract Expressionist paintings today. Comic books fueled my early love for art and reading. After struggling for many years with how to integrate this boyhood passion in to my paintings, I stumbled upon a book comprised of Action Comics covers featuring Superman from the 1930’s and 1940’s. The book became the inspiration for my signature Action series combining the elements of Abstract Expressionism and the Pop Art elements of comic books. My arts education took shape at UMass/ Dartmouth where I earned a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree in Illustration from 1985-89. However, my desire to create comics evolved into a love for painting. I studied and practiced Abstract Expressionism, Germany Expressionism, and Pop Art during those developing years. The works of Egon Schiele, Gustav Klimt, Jackson Pollack, Willem DeKooning, Andy Warhol, Jean Michel Basquiat, but most notably the works of Franz Kline inspired my vision and continue to influence my work. I painted my first notable abstract works in my final year at UMass/Dartmouth. These bold black and white paintings of wide bold brush strokes, drips and splatters pointed me in the direction of Kline and Abstraction Expressionism. After leaving school I worked sporadically for many years and earned a Masters degree in Education. In the summer of 2004, I seized the opportunity to paint a mural at the health club I attended. With the successful completion of the mural of the vineyards of Tuscany, my desire to paint was revived, but I needed a place to work away from home. After making several inquires for studio space, I was made aware of the launching of a new arts community in Lowell at Western Avenue. Soon I became a founding member of the growing Western Avenue Studios community. I maintain a studio there to this day while I prepare my body of work to pursue my career as a working painter.

Alyshia LienAppleton Mills Apt. 117, Map# 5https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.4455600831.3125.564960831 Mixed media Painting & Sculpture Alyshia Lien, aka ALIEN, was born in Lowell, Massachusetts (1976). As a young girl she enjoyed exploring nature and all its wonders, which proved to be the beginnings of her creative process. Growing up in New England she discovered her passion for the arts. An aspiring artist and an avid ballet and modern dancer since the age of eight, she attended college at The University of the Arts, Philadelphia, PA (1995) as a fine art major and dance minor. During college, her passion for dance was under bellied by her visual art explorations. Alyshia further advanced her fine art techniques during her studies at The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Philadelphia, PA (1997). Feeling more confident in her artistic abilities, she was both inspired and disenchanted by the city. When her love-hate relationship of the city began to take its toll, she moved back home to complete her BFA at University of Massachusetts Lowell (2003). ALIEN was the Artist-In-Residence at the William Steeple Davis House in NY (2006-2007). During her residency, she spent many days beach combing for sculpture materials and arranging the found objects in her studio for potential assemblage configurations. Sometimes it would take months before a sculpture was completed, while searching for that perfect found object. Collecting objects in the studio and living with them on a daily basis allowed her to become acquainted with the found materials. Alyshia discovered her preferred method of painting during her stay at the Davis House. She would embrace the canvas with water-based media as an under painting. Then she would apply oil sticks, pastels, and oil paints over that to achieve a layered effect. In addition to finding her painting and sculpture processes, she re-discovered her love of writing poetry. Alyshia continues to incorporate her poetry in her art making process. The joys and hardships of solitude and isolation proved to be an unprecedented journey of self-exploration. She was able to discover how her creative process unfolds in space and time. Currently living in the Lowell area, she continues to experiment with mixed media paintings and sculptures. With a newfound affinity to video and improv dance, she has performed and collaborated with various artists at local events, fundraisers, and benefits. Alyshia has shown her work at local galleries and coffee shops. She is diligently working on a large body of work in her studio. In addition, ALIEN is always brewing spontaneous performance and installation ideas in the background of her mind and configuring the juxtaposition of a multi-media conglomeration of all the wonders of the world, or at least of her many artistic endeavors. ALIEN is coming to a gallery near you.

Carol McGrathWestern Avenue Studios 529, Map# 1http://www.carolmcgrathpaints.com trompe l'oeil murals, painted furniture After a career as a Decorative Painting teacher, Carol put away her brushes to follow her family’s busy schedule. Then, she discovered “Trompe L’oeil”! Trompe-l’œil, is an art technique involving extremely realistic imagery in order to create the optical illusion that the depicted objects appear in three dimensions. She started her quest at the Decorating Masters school in Georgia. Then traveled to Maryland, back to Georgia.. anywhere it was being taught. She studied at The Kendall School for the Arts, Rhode Island School of Design and Monserrat. Her passion and love of learning new techniques have partnered her with some of the best teachers in the country. “ Trompe L’oeil has given me a sense of power. I can give my clients a permanent memory in their homes. A doorway to Aruba.. a loft overlooking Beacon Hill.. a Tuscany landscape... a window on Provence.. a garden with perpetual flowers.. a childhood memory.. a window on Ireland... all these can be brought to life with a stroke of a brush. Sometimes, I feel it’s almost magical... and I get to wield the ‘magic wand’! Her furniture ranges from a life-like pizza table to a breath- taking seaside view bureau. If you imagine it... she can paint it.... with her ‘magic wand’.

Christopher PendergastWestern Avenue Studios 309, Map# 1www.christopherpendergast.com Oil painting Born 1976 BFA School of the Art Institute of Chicago – 2000 Growing up as a foreigner in Europe I became acutely aware of the difference between how I saw myself and how others defined me. Preconceived notions of Americans typically had more influence on how I was perceived than my own actions. These often contrary viewpoints were a striking introduction to the subjective nature of perception. My work explores the inherent conflict between simple objects or scenes and the complex perception that personal experience brings to a subject. I bring my own perception of the subject to my work through the use of highly representative and heavily abstracted elements. At first glance, the literal elements of the paintings are most significant. Upon further reflection, the role of the abstract components in providing context for those literal elements becomes clear. The expressive nature of the abstract exists in the contrast to the representative facets of my work. The act of resolving this tension between the literal and abstract is a symbolic exploration of the relationship between the subjective and objective aspects of perception. My paintings are the visual record of the complex internal dialogue that exists throughout this process. The subject matter, my knowledge of art history, materials, technique, methodology, and my own narrative are all equivalent counterparts in this discourse. The nature of perception is further reflected throughout my creative process. Exhaustive photography of the subject allows for the creating of a collective perspective. While my internal dialogue develops the highly flexible nature of oil paint allows me to keep the work vital. And while at times I still seek the give of canvas or the precision of a uniform surface like archival panel, I find that linen most often provides a consistency as well as liveliness upon which to watch the finished work unfold.

David PhaneufAyer Lofts , Map# 9After graduating from Massachusetts College of Art, I initially focused on sculpture, but ultimately pen and ink has become my medium of choice. A few years ago I began showing my work locally, in Lowell and Lawrence. I joined the Arts League of Lowell a few years ago, where I have much enjoyed interaction with fellow artists. I preparing to do a piece, I first scout out locations, I particularly like industrial scenes, including factory buildings, freight yards, bridges and canals. Next, I cut my paper stock to the desired size. I bring it to the location and do a light pencil sketch of the scene. Finally, back in my studio, I complete the drawing in pen and ink.

Deb PrattAppleton Mills 321, Map# 5http://dprattdesigns.carbonmade.com/ graphic design/mixed media textiles I have been a graphic designer for print, Web and digital media for over 12 years. I am sole-proprietor of a graphic/Web design business, the primary focus of which is to produce print and digital media for small businesses, artists and craftspeople.
In addition to my work as a graphic artist, I continue to pursue my love for textiles and fiber arts. The sculptural basket forms you will see in my open studio are selected from a production crafts line I continue to actively develop, produce and exhibit. The innovative technique used to produce my work is a direct outcome of my MFA thesis work. A four-harness loom is an essential tool in the process for weaving flat "fabric", which is then hand-woven, shaped and constructed to create three dimensional vessel forms. Currently, I am in a new product development stage—exploring the use of this same technique for developing sculptural lighting forms and combining graphics with collage and recycled fiber elements.
I am new to the Lowell artist’s community, moving here from Worcester, MA where I was a graphic designer for Clark University. I have a BFA in crafts from Massachusetts College of Art and an MFA in Weaving and Textile Design from Rochester Institute of Technology, School for American Craftsmen. I am certified in computer graphic design for both Web and print media.

Tina SilverioWestern Avenue Studios A312, Map# 1http://www.tmsstudios.com Warm Glass I love the way glass lets in the light, radiates warmth and dances with reflections. But, glass not only lets in the light, it can also light the space with color. It not only radiates warmth but fills the room with a warm glow, and I can create and manipulate its reflections to dance gracefully across the room. Because of its natural ability to say and convey so many things, I typically allow the glass to speak for itself in most of my art. While primarily self taught through many firings and "trial and error", I did attend formal education including working with world reknown teaching glass artists. tmsStudios is also a Preferred Bullseye Partner and Kilnformed Glass Resource Center which teaches a variety of fused glass and kilnformed glass classes while selling Bullseye Glass and tools to students who wish to continue the art at home.

Jean TheurkaufWestern Avenue Studios 502, Map# 1www.artofthetangle.com Fiber Arts, Handwovens, Zentangle Drawing I have had a lifelong love affair with fiber and color, especially expressed through handweaving, hand dying yarn, and freeform knitting and crochet. More recently, I have been completely hooked on abstract drawing methods of Zentangle. I sell handwoven items and handpainted yarns in my studio, as well as Zentangle inspired drawings and supplies. However, my true love is teaching, and supplying fiber artists and Zentangle artists with beautiful yarns and materials to work with. I believe that every human being has the ability to create beautiful artwork. I also believe that most people have an innate desire to express themselves creatively. However, as we grow into adulthood, our artistic instincts are often squashed because we find that we don't measure up to various "standards".
Well, all of these things might be true, but they don't mean we can't create beautiful works of art. My greatest pleasure is to see the moment when students look at their abstract works, which don't look like anything, and may have no straight lines, and say "Wow! I did this! And I love it!". Or maybe they combine colors and textures in patterns of their own design to create truly unique knitted or crocheted pieces. I believe that if people are given the "tools" and "ingredients" (whether it be Zentangle patterns, beautiful yarns, a palette of colors), and a positive experience, that they will have the confidence to go forward and develop their own artistic instincts.

Gay S TracyWestern Avenue Studios 322, Map# 1http://www.gaytracy.com Painter Acrylic, Oil, Mixed Media Artist Statement For me, painting is about color, motion, and emotion and their expression as form on canvas. My palette and subject matter reflect the joy, and sometimes the humor, I find in the world of my imagination and in everyday life My colors are bold; my subjects ask the viewer to engage in what they are thinking and feeling. Certain images have become part of my paint language, creatures, dreamers and their dreamscapes, landscapes, moons, and trees, and dogs. I am delighted that my work has been described by the local media as "edgy, fun, and fancifully colored".

Incorporating all of her passions, travel, the oceans, landscapes from around the world, animals, nature, people, and a love for life itself, she is realizing a dream. There is nothing she enjoys more than to be an active participant in the joining of two people into a new life together, consequently her attraction for specializing in wedding photography. Freelance work has taken her as far as The United Kingdom. In her studio she does portrait photography; headshots, senior portraits, pets and children, but much more prefers natural light and the beach or any outdoor setting as the backdrop. Her services also include Bar Mitzvahs, First Communions, and family or social events. She has a large selection of seascape, landscape and fine art images for sale at her studio or through her web site as well as many retail locations. Her freelance work has also been requested for a number of books where many of her photographs have been published.
