Bill is a native of Lancaster. After obtaining a BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art, he later earned an MFA from the Maine College of Art.

His studio practice drifts between lens based processes, book arts and installation; creating narratives about micro-histories, object-hood and traces.

Gay P. Cox: “Transvision"
Gay’s work is about “transvision” seeing beyond the bare facts in front of us to something vaster and full of grace, and about making that invisible reality present, expressive and tangible to others. She uses classical disciplines in figure, portraiture and landscape, giving them free rein in a color filled expressionism. Her intent is to create works that seem to burst from the two dimensional surface and create for the viewer, new ways of seeing.
Gay’s subjects are drawn from the visible world: trees, flowers, patches of gardens and places, such as a cathedral or a town square in El Salvador, and are researched extensively to see them in full. She was born and raised in England and attended Leeds Beckett University, Yorkshire, England. Moving to the United States, she then studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.

Brenda Blank: “Home"
Brenda’s theme for this exhibit is “Home”, with paintings inspired by places and things found here at home in Lancaster County. She was born and raised in rural parts of our county, surrounded by farms and open fields. The aged and weathered buildings, trees, streams and gardens have always captured her attention.
A self-taught artist, she finds watercolor painting both relaxing and energizing. Her passion is to highlight the beauty in the things around her. By sketching and painting ordinary things, she likes to show the meaning and purpose those things provide in our daily lives. Someone once encouraged her to “paint the pearl”. Life is gull of visual gifts and special moments. Brenda hopes to represent these pearls of life in her paintings.
Receptions held on the 1st day of the exhibit, 1-4pm unless otherwise noted.
*Entry Fees- per piece:
