Acrylic 6 x 6"Her mindful thoughts are marked by long, measured, quiet thinking. She rarely speaks, but when she does, her words are worthwhile and propitious.

Watercolor 12.5 x 9.5" I am an abstract painter, and I work primarily in watercolors with mixed media elements. I’m inspired by the interplay of colors, shapes, and uneven lines, and I love the fluid, unpredictable nature of watercolor paints. I work very intuitively: I always have a starting point - a particular color combination or focal point - but then I just go wherever inspiration leads me, often surprising myself! Painting brings me peace, balance, and joy, and it helps me maintain an even keel in our uncertain times.

Photography 11 x 14" Based in Hampton Bays on the East End of Long Island, I collect seashells and marine-life fragments from which I create small sculptures and abstract assemblies that form the basis of my photography. I am drawn to the soothing rhythms and repeating patterns of the design elements found in nature. I marvel at how their beauty endures, despite a tumultuous journey. My images try to capture that essence and share that feeling with others.

Acrylic 13 x 13" I seek to express the intangible experience of spirit. It is the awareness of the big picture. It is about the meaning of life and connection to self and others. I am exploring and expressing an inner experience through abstract images. I paint images that feel solid and spacious which is how I feel when I am experiencing “presence”. I have always noticed the subtleties of life whether it was observing beauty in nature or man-made, overcoming difficult challenges, and the complexities of the human experience. I process these experiences through painting.

Photography 14 x 11.75" Travelling into New York City, camera in hand, I leaned as far as possible out the passenger window to capture the incredible, repeating patterns in the Williamsburg Bridge as it skyrocketed over me like a giant erector set while the arched lampposts created a graceful dance-like rhythm along the edge. I used extreme angles, heightened contrast and an intuitive, geometric sense of composition to prompt the viewer to take a closer look and come away with a deeper appreciation of the "ordinary." In the words of Henry David Thoreau, "The question is not what you look at, but what you see."

Acrylic 14 x 11" As one of my earlier pieces of art, Animal Kingdom, was pivotal in understanding what I'm capable of as an artist. To me, this piece means so much more to me than an homage to the vivid and diverse colors and animals of our earth. It honors animals as sentient beings and draws a relationship from human to animal. We are more alike than we think. However, ultimately the meaning behind this piece is up to the viewer and whatever connection they inspire with it.

Photography 14 x 11" When a Noreaster hits the New England coast in winter it is usually fierce. I was watching how far the breaking waves would dare to come. Rivers of water washed through the snow fence. As the water receded, the sky brightened and left behind this wonderful reflection in the sand. I was especially focused on the broken picket, then the wavering lines and the fan like fence in the foreground standing strong against the wind and waves. I could feel the back and forth tug between the man made fence and mother nature.

Oil 14 x 11"I make paintings of women, the sea, mysterious encounters, and uncommon places. “On the Edge of the World” is from my ongoing series portraying young girls coming of age. We look deeply into these faces and bodies and revisit our own memories filtered through the lens of childhood and adolescence. My subjects are often on the cusp of change. They are contemplating their futures, preparing their imaginations - and their lives - to take flight. Within these girls lies the power to achieve their dreams.

Collage 8 x 6" The idea of one's guardian is near and dear to me. I am comforted by the notion that there is someone or something that keeps an eye out for all of us and keeps us from harm. I often refer to these guardians as the "grandmothers", emanating from our female relatives and ancestors who came before us and acting as a collective blanket of safety. Collaged from old textiles and other bits of my own papers and canvas. The edges are embellished with intricate designs inspired by Slavic Pysanky eggs.

Oil 15 x 15" What began as a life painting session, The Chanteuse and the Nightingale evolved as a conceptual painting that recognizes the model, Mozelle Andrulot, and her talents as a jazz singer. With the loveliest sound of all song birds, the nightingale symbolizes Mozelle's marvelous jazz vocals. The distant view of low tide at dusk honors both the model’s first name, Hebrew for "drawn from the water,” and acknowledges that both the jazz chanteuse and the nightingale share their gift with us after the sun goes down.

Fiber Art 15 x 15" Creating The Great Divide was a fusion of my passion for mixed media, collage and meditative stitching. My process was quite intuitive, beginning with painted cheesecloth fabric and a palette of neutrals, blues and greens in fabric and a gel print on rice paper. After creating my collage, I began to stitch with thread. Not only did my stitching act as the “glue” for my collage, but it created mark making and texture. The strong cork fabric diagonal provided me with the title, The Great Divide.

Pastel 13.5 x 11" The painting of the “ profile of Harry” was in inspired by my trip to South Africa this past November.I travel a lot and pastels are much easier to transport. For the past 2 1/2 years my journey using this medium has proven to be inspiring and challenging. I mainly work on pastelmat for it allows many layers for the richness of the medium.

Acrylic 12 x 12" XOXO speaks to choosing joy in the midst of fear and opening your heart despite the danger that you may feel great pain and sorrow. When my son and his wife were expecting our first grandchild, we anxiously waited and watched… for this was a very complicated and dangerous pregnancy. From the moment I learned she was pregnant, I decided to feel all the joy, all the excitement, and let the fear take a backseat. This painting was created as we waited.

Oil 10 x 10" There’s no denying the allure of fresh warm peaches with their soft fuzz and intoxicating summer scent. These Georgia beauties were brought home as a special treat by my daughter. She had stopped at a fruit stand outside of Savannah, which just happened to be in the parking lot of a “gentlemen’s” club named Temptations. We had a good laugh when I chose the title, Summer Temptations, a little inside joke between us.

Oil 12 x 8" Skies offer the challenge of describing infinitely variable light, color expression and forms that appear three dimensional but also porous, translucent or reflective. My skies series, dependent on one moment’s light, are also about temporality in nature and our lives; the ongoing metamorphosis witnessed in the clouds that mimics the unstoppable sea of change we ride in life. I find every attribute from fearsome power, stunning beauty to quiet sublimity reflected across the sky. I hope to evoke the metaphorical display of life’s fragility, to give testament to life’s volatility and emotional range, and to celebrate elusive earthly moments when condensation and weather create something so humanly resonate.

Watercolor 8 x 10" My small paintings center on spaces from my imagination that reflect reality but do not represent it, much like a surreal dream. I rarely know where a painting is going when I begin working. I am rather obsessed with the moon, architecture, texture, and pattern. I also enjoy mixing perspective. I want my small, intimate paintings to feel large.This painting, “Garden of the Harvest Moon”, is an abstraction of ideas incorporating my interests in the above areas.

Acrylic 12 x 12" I love to work in series, and Coastal Basin is part of my Coastal series. This ongoing body of work is inspired by the coast of New England where I have lived all my life. Morning walks to sunrise show me colors, textures, patterns, shapes and forms that I borrow and rearrange in my studio to re-create the essence of that moment.

Sculpture 13 x 13 x 10" Taking a raw block of Sylacauca marble and beginning to carve, not knowing the beginning or the end, is the most intuitive, exciting way I sculpt. If the design is already planned, it simply becomes process to get to the final form. But, direct carving, with no preconceived idea, is strictly an exploratory and intuitive approach to sculpting. The raw stone for Blanca, already triangular in shape, became a form with movement, where the inner void becomes as important as the outer form.

Photography 11 x 14" In the image, I captured the simple beauty in a state park on Amelia Island, Florida. I used the platinum/palladium printing process to capture a softer, painterly effect, evoking late 19th century idyllic landscapes and lending a poetic quality to the image.

Sculpture 6 x 9 x 9" “Coral Reminder 80” is one clay sculpture from the Coral Reminders series. The possibility that these incredible natural structures and life forms could be destroyed by a 2° rise in ocean temperatures is our reality. Sandra’s work is intended to bring the underwater world above the surface to keep it visible and increase awareness of its precarious balance.

Collage 12 x 14" My collages are intimate in size and are meant to be experienced close up. They may be narrative or suggestive. I relish the spontaneous process of instinctive play without knowing whether it will result in wonderful visual chaos or composed lyrical poetry. Collage is perfect for my creative process. “Hochhauser’s Walk” is a map of a personal journey, both literal and figurative. Although it is small, I have incorporated tearing, gluing, painting, stamping, scratching and mark-making to convey my experience, and perhaps to trigger memories or resonate with the viewer's own journeys.

Acrylic 12 x 12" Painting is something I returned to in the last few years after a 4 decade detour into show business. Painting challenges, overwhelms and inspires, coaxing me to connect and explore the conscious and subconscious worlds of fear, curiosities and stillness where words are difficult, translating my inner life to a visual one on canvas.

Pastel 12.5 x 11.5" Painting is a much-needed creative outlet for me and I love to experiment with different techniques, pastels and surfaces. What drew me to the scene for “Reflections at the Pier” was the contrast between the red building and the cloudy sky. I was trying to capture the stillness and flat light of a cold day on the water and the texture of the wooden pier and posts.

Acrylic 12 x 12" Down on the Farm is one of a series of small paintings (12x12”) inspired during a late summer morning stroll through Homecoming Farm on Long Island. The people who developed & run the farm are devoted to organic methods honoring the immutable connection between Mother Earth and Holy Spirit. With a prophetic vision, they take responsibility for the health of our land, the bounty she produces, and the nourishment of the poor in our midst. I hope my paintings honor their commitment & their service to our community.

Digital 14 x 14"Mary Doering is a multimedia artist who lives in Brewster Massachusetts. I draw freely from the various disciplines of art. Using a computer as both a tool and a collaborator, I layer original photographs, textures, and personal drawings together in Photoshop. These separate elements often combine in surprising ways. Working intuitively, I allow for mystery and unpredictability to dictate where the process leads. Low tide tries to capture Skaket Beach in Orleans, Ma. at low tide. I am fascinated by the variety of surfaces, textures, rivulets and marks left by the receding tide.

Photography 15 x 15"I want to capture the fast-paced dynamics of New York City Street life. What is exciting and energizes me is how spontaneous the process is, and unpredictable people are. Some are completely unaware of being photographed, some may see me and try to pose or wave, others may be hostile to what they consider an intrusion. I will sometimes stop and ask someone if I can photograph them. Generally, I like to photograph on sunny days, which increases contrast in light and shadows. Places with interesting forms, light, and street geometry provide a good background and foreground to the people I choose to photograph.

Sculpture 9.75 x 14 x 6"
My sculpture is inspired by the human connection to nature. I use natural materials to create organic forms that move through space. The delicate translucency of calcite or the heavy trunk of wood, both present unique technical and creative opportunities.

Sculpture 14 x 9 x 7.5"
All of my sculptural work is nature-themed with a focus on the sea and florals, both abstract and moving toward realism. My inspiration for this work came from my frequent visits to a beautiful spot of land—ocean on three sides-- with the same name, that juts into the open ocean. I submitted this because it is a special example of what I believe is the magic of working with porcelain—that I can bring it to wafer thin forms while turning, twisting and lifting it into organic shapes that recall the energy of the sea.

Oil 14 x 14" As a child I had a pet parakeet, so I have loved birds since then. I also enjoy, in the spring, watching the small Chickadee's visit our bird feeder. They are such delicate beautiful creatures. I choose pomegranate's rich colors to compliment the Chickadee's colors.

Sculpture 15 x 15 x 3" In Figures Embracing, the delicate nature of humanity is portrayed through sculpted figures, creating haunting shadows as important as the physical beings. Capturing body language, movement and how they relate to emotion and character, reflect the human condition exposed in these works. Sculptures of wire mesh reveal figures whose existence is precarious. These copper sculptural works represent a time and place of isolation, where home, assimilation and community are important social issues relevant to our current climate. By penetrating façades, we look deeply into transparent figures seeing what lies in the shadows of the unseen and unspoken.

Pastel 14.5 x 14.5" In all my work I try to create depth and dimension through colors, lines, and marks, drawing the viewer into my paintings, to give them a reason to look deeper into the underlying structure of the work. This piece “Mod Orange” was an exploration of the spectrum of orange. I used acrylic on a canvas paper substrate in a variety of shades and shapes. To heighten the range, I used gold leaf and metallic gold acrylic paint, glazing with orange pigments. Pastels rubbed into the surface allowed me to blend and connect the composition.

Oil 14 x 11" I am friends with the delightful model Gazelle with whom I have worked for several years. While she is primarily a ‘nude life model’, she is a warm and creative person. When she sat down fully clothed in the crazy chair I have in my studio, she looked wonderful and the light was good, and the materials were new for me – cradled pine panel versus canvas, and a very limited palette – and viola, this little oil portrait was born. Both she and I were very pleased with the results.

Pastel 9 x 12" There are so many beautiful trails throughout the Adirondack Region in New York State. I have taken many of them and have admired the beauty of what all the four seasons have to offer. I came across this majestic tree in all its glory standing tall as a sentinel and new I had to do justice to it on canvas.

Sculpture 15 x 11 x 6" Embrace is made from a solid 25 lb block of porcelain clay, running it through a slab roller, cutting it apart and then reconstructing thin layers into a gravity-defying vessel. The resulting form appears simultaneously both architectural and figurative.

Printmaking 15 x 15" Bell’s Woodlands is a print from my recent series “ Trail Musings”. Being surrounded by nature has always been a source of interpretation for me, I am concerned about the impact and consequences of climate change. From remembered landscapes, I draw on my landscape photographs recording light, shadow and memory. Merging the images from several perspectives gives a closer interpretation of my experiences. The resulting images suggest narratives of unfolding life cycles: birth, growth, death and renewal.

Pastel 15 x 15" The Trinity Bridge of Saint Petersburg reflects the notion of sorrow for the times past and present with the rainy glare, yet a gleaming hope of indelible light. It gives me great pleasure and a sense of fulfillment to be able to capture and express the virtuosity of both, the stark, but genuine nature, and the skillful excellency of the architecture.

Pastel 12 x 14" This 8 x 10” pastel was an experiment that started with a watercolor of cloud formations while looking out of my 4th floor studio window. I liked the composition but the shapes weren’t fluid and the colors needed nuance. Pastels breathed life into the colors and imagination took over for the cloud like forms emoting a feeling of infinite distance and depth.

Photography 12 x 12" The years before my Mother passed away, I flew cross country frequently to help with the numerous needs and to ease my mental health as she faded into the ether. I'd tuck into a window seat for the day-long journey. Flying gave me wings to get there, the speed to know I'd not miss another sacred moment and the strange euphoric freedom that being hurled 600+ miles an hour through the atmosphere creates within our nervous system. It was both exhilarating and horrifying...reminders “We are Travelers” on this big blue rock.

Sculpture 9.5 x 11 x 11"Little Madison came to model for me but she was very shy and didn't know what pose to take. I asked her what she did for fun and she said she loved to draw. I said, "Me too! Would you like to use my drawing pencils and paper and make some drawings for me?" For over two hours she sat and drew, while I created this little sculpture. Her “Purple Shoes” led me to believe that deep inside this shy little girl, there was a big artist inside.
